[edit] Cabalis/

Malformed article title, reads like a copyvio though I can't find it, but there are only 23 unique Google hits for "Jean de Cabalis". User:Zoe|^(talk) 08:34, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

• Comment he has very little internet presence; no way to confirm that he has 400 followers in his guild. His teacher's school "Alexandrian Witchcraft" is much bigger and probably could support an article. If anyone wants to defend this article, Cabalis at least seems to have contributed to some kind of pamphlet or book that you can buy on his website -Meegs 08:50, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Sounds like self-publishing to me, which doesn't aid his claims of notability. User:Zoe|^(talk) 23:10, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

See http://groups.yahoo.com/group/magicks_of_cabalis/ for members of his Guild and http://cabilis.topcities.com for his home page. This person is head of a number of occult organisations and one of the most famous magicians in the world today. See also cabilis as spelling. Of his groups, Apostolic Guardian Church of Grace and Blessing, Et Custosi Tutelae, Ordrine Scatere Stellae and others. - also see Guardians of Grace Blessing and Sustenance. There are also references to this person being involved with Boucca Wicca and the Golden Dawn. I notice this person has used two spellings jean de CABILIS and jean de CABALIS which need to be considered when researching him. The ECT book list is way out of date, there are about another 40 books his Et Custosi Tutelae organisation has published by him.

• Delete That his order has 400 members seems to be based on a yahoo group, rather than any third party verification. This is a non-notable person. DeathThoreau 16:16, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
• Weak delete. An occultist with 400 followers would be on the fringes of notability anyways. No other claims to noteworthiness, publications or controversies, are given, other than that he founded a Yahoo group. Smerdis of Tlön 04:54, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
