[edit] Renaissance Papacy

Essay, appears to be original research, POV. Topic is not worthy of its own article. Some info might be moved to Pope if there is anything significant here. Heimstern Läufer 23:25, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, some kind of weird school essay. Gazpacho 23:49, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Rewritten version is a substub that doesn't seem worth keeping. Gazpacho 18:22, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete OR and soapbox (and yes, it reads like a short school assignment) -Markeer 01:18, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and rename to "Renaissance Popes". 20,900 hits for them. JASpencer 17:52, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Certainly, but that doesn't mean we need a seperate article for the Papacy in the Renaissance. I saw the rewrite, and it still seems larely POV and also now contains very little content and next to no context. I still support deletion. Heimstern Läufer 18:06, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Encyclopedic topic, the history of the Papacy as an institution in this time period certainly merits an article, and the now-stubbed article is a good place to start. Sandstein 20:54, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Not enough info to justify having it as an article. Merge with Popes.Edison 21:23, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Hopeless drivel before it was emptied. Pavel Vozenilek 23:00, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and rewrite. Definitely an encyclopedic topic. Danny 23:14, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep A distinct period in the papacy, and therefore proper for separate treatment. Gabrielthursday 23:51, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep The Papacy during the Renaissance is a unique period unto its own. I thought a stub article would be better than nothing. Feel free to delete it if need be. Daves82
• Keep, as per Gabrielthursday. In addition, you never know who you might need to put in a good word with St. Peter ... Noroton 04:21, 9 October 2006 (UTC) ... [additional comment] ... like the victims of some of these popes.Noroton 01:58, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as an encyclopedic topic that I hope is properly developped. A topic of importance should not be prejudiced by the drivel in its history. Themindset 04:44, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
