 * Keep - the psychology of religious conversion is a major topic within the Psychology of Religion. This article has many cited sources, and, whereas it is true that there are a few places where the article says "citation needed",  these would be better served by finding citations for these articles than by deleting this article.

 * Keep - there are abundant reliable sources on the subject, such as 352 on Google Scholar - a conservative estimate, as there are some 17,000 with a slightly different search. There is no doubt that psychology finds conversion a major topic. The article definitely needs work, but if that were a criterion for deletion we'd only have 34,928 good or featured articles in the encyclopedia. Nom should have done a quick due diligence.

 * Keep - The article could be improved, but topics like conversion and deconversion (and more recently radicalization) have wide coverage. Important aspects of the psychology of religion.  — Paleo  Neonate  – 00:56, 7 October 2017 (UTC)
