Fixing AfD entry only. Unclear who wants deletion. No vote on my part. --Metropolitan90 16:31, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

• Created page. Jbhood 07:28, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
• Merge content with Viruses of the Mind. It seems to exist only (or at least chiefly) as a phrase in that essay. Incorporated there, some of this text will do something to redress the balance in that article, which has been slanted at present so that the detractors have the final say!

• Delete - or Merge with Viruses of the Mind. This is a neologism for which there are many more notable, historical phrases. SkierRMH 20:55, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Bigtop 23:38, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
  • comment - what do you mean by "per nom"? The nomination was (as far as I can tell) anonymous, with no reason given. Snalwibma 11:21, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
• Merge with Viruses_of_the_Mind same reason as Snalwibma. Easier to manage one article than the two as they are so highly interrelated. Ttiotsw 03:28, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
• Smerge There was discussion about this issue on the talk page prior to the nomination. As I have already made my position clear there, I will not repeat those arguments here. I don't think a full-on merge is warranted. Snalwibma seems to think that moving this biased content to Viruses of the Mind will somehow rectify some deficit in that article, but, in my view, two wrongs don't make a right. 209.30.90.117 04:24, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
• Merge useful content only into Viruses of the Mind - "faith-sufferer" (or faith-suffering per WP:NAME) isn't a sufficiently well-developed concept for its own article. — mholland 12:51, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - the useful content needed to go into Viruses of the Mind anyway, in order to give a reasonable account of the content of that essay. I've now done this. Metamagician3000 14:14, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
• Can now delete. Metamagician has done a fantastic job of bringing the content into Viruses of the Mind. Snalwibma 20:13, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
• Merge per above. Just H 20:14, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect This is a neologism. Per WP:NEO, we need reliable secondary sources independent of the creation about the neologism as a term before we can have an article on a neologism. The essay where it was originally coined isn't independent; the other references either are broken, unavailable for me, or do not even use the term. This leads to deletion, however since Metamagician3000 has merged, redirecting is required. GRBerry 03:16, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete and redirect now that merge has taken place.--Kubigula (talk) 03:37, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
