 * Delete No extensive reliable sourcing for the religion itself. Nwlaw63 (talk) 23:49, 7 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Draftify This is a reasonably accurate article, which has been in existence for a number of years, on a significant facet of Lois McMaster Bujold's Chalion novels. However, while the article as it stands probably deserves to survive somewhere, that place is probably not Wikipedia - it currently badly infringes Wikipedia guidelines against in-universe articles and what we choose here to call original research. A limited amount of the article could be referenced from independent reliable secondary sources such as this one (and almost all the rest from primary sources) but unfortunately, at least as yet, there do not seem to be enough substantial reliable sources to justify a standalone article on the topic.
 * However, there are enough further sources on other aspects of the Chalion series and its associated universe to justify a standalone article (separate from the existing articles on the individual novels) - the sources available for this topic would justify at least a short section on it within such an article, and a distinctly shortened version of this article, based on what can be reliably sourced, would be a useful starting-point for it.

 * Delete. There isn't anything to merge, and moving to draft space would only delay the inevitable.  Besides the one source offered above, I can't find anything that discusses the topic of religion in this series.  Maybe a fan could do a better search, but I see no evidence that this topic is notable.  This sort of comprehensive, in-universe topic should be on Wikia.

 * Delete as lacking sourcing. Stuartyeates (talk) 01:29, 20 September 2014 (UTC)
