Delete - Article not needed because information already at Humanistic Judaism Humanistic Ron (talk) 12:11, 8 March 2011 (UTC) Delete - As per nomination. --Antwerpen Synagoge (talk) 19:30, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Humanistic Judaism. A possible search term. As the nominator says, all the info is at there. It is not so large an article as to need splitting. Peridon (talk) 18:51, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, without prejudice to possible merge and redirect. The Society is certainly notable (hundreds of hits at Google Books, hundreds more at Google News), so there's no reason to delete the edit history of this article. --Arxiloxos (talk) 19:53, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment: The nominator cut-and-pasted content from this article into the other without attribution while also removing multiple paragraphs of information from Humanistic Judaism. Rmhermen (talk) 00:26, 9 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment: The nominator has been blocked as a sockpuppet. Additionally, the editor has a history of proposing for deletion articles about progressive Jewish organizations. See the archive of the investigations for more info. SeparateWays (talk) 13:52, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment: Antwerpen Syngoge has also been blocked as a sockpuppet. Rmhermen (talk) 14:47, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep: As noted by Arxiloxos, notability shouldn't be an issue; there are plenty of references about the Society for Humanistic Judaism. I think merging this with the article on Humanistic Judaism doesn't make sense. Humanistic Judaism is a philosophy; the Society for Humanistic Judaisim is an organization. The categories of the two articles are different. For analogies, see the articles for Conservative Judaism and United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism, or Reform Judaism and World Union for Progressive Judaism.
