Society of Novus Spiritus
Minor religion with no evidence of substantial adherents, at best should be merged with Sylvia Browne JoshuaZ 18:14, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm not disputing Joshua's judgment here, he knows of what he speaks in this area, but tis gets 50% of the ghits that the Society of St. Francis gets which is surprising for a minor cult. The article is grossly unencyclopaedic, though. Just zis Guy you know? 18:31, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I didn't do a google search before I AfDed it here. I'm not surprised at the high total, which strikes me as evidence of Browne's internet self-promotion more than evidence of independent notability. JoshuaZ 18:47, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I can believe that easily enough. Evidence of numbers of adherents is very hard to find, but there do seem to be a few mentions in the press. I think your merge and redirect idea is probably the right answer here. Just zis Guy you know? 19:09, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
 * After looking through the google hits a bit more, all the newspaper mentions are incidental to Browne, mainly occuring in articles which describe her as a psychic and then list "other accomplishments." I can't find one article devoted to the Society. So yeah looks like merge/redirect makes the most sense. JoshuaZ 21:41, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Merge - As per above, this group is mainly a platform for Browne's ideas. - Solar 16:32, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Merge with Sylvia Browne. Both articles need trimming of POV. Nominated article would otherwise need a radical rewrite and wikification if it were to be kept. B.Wind 14:32, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
