Dic Def. Translation. Jwissick^(t)(c) 01:22, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, notable. Kappa 01:34, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, it's a religious sect, not just a definition of any word. --TM ^(talk) 01:40, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. Not a dicdef, as context has been added since nomination was made. HollyAm 01:44, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, it may be a sect, but it appears to be non-notable. -- Kjkolb 02:53, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
  • On what grounds? Kappa 03:17, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
  • On the contrary: Reading the references given in the article, it appears that plenty of people have considered this sect notable enough to have published works dealing with it. We are not short of material from multiple independent secondary sources. Uncle G 13:58, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, a major sect of a small but significant world religion. --Metropolitan90 03:48, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep: It's an unfortunately short stub, but plenty of potential for expansion. — C Maylett 04:08, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Not dic def. utcursch | talk 13:18, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• The article about a relgious sect that is over two millennia old was a speedy deletion candidate at the time of nomination (and had indeed been speedily deleted with that content before) for being a short article with no context (and no main verbs). It has context, references, and whole sentences now. Keep. Uncle G 13:58, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. I don't see a dicdeft in any place here, and I'd like to read more about the subject. Shauri 19:53, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Our Jainism article states that it is one of the two major sects of that religion and has existed for more than 2000 years and probably at least a million devotees given that Jainism has 4 million devotees. This article is now a good stub with potential for expansion. Capitalistroadster 23:47, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep : notable, remember learning about them in school. User:Nichalp/sg 13:16, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
