The Winged Self


I tagged this one with a prod a few months ago, but it was removed with the comment "rm prod. afd this", which would imply that the person who removed the prod agreed that deletion was warranted. The article has had no substantive edits since July. The 3000ish google hits that "Winged Self" receives are mostly Wikipedia mirrors or copies of a poem mentioned in the article. Sources for "The Winged Self" are almost entirely Wikipedia-generated. The sources cited in the article are two devotional pages telling you how to worship the winged self. Whatever the "winged self" is (I'm still not sure from reading the article), if it were an important symbol, it would be mentioned more than just a few places. BigDT 23:42, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete appears to be original research based on the Kahlil Gibran poem, the Book of Revelations and a Francis Bacon novel. Demiurge 00:11, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
