Only primary sources. Maybe a merge makes sense, but I've no idea where to. Been tagged as having issues for 11 years. Hobit (talk) 23:39, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, might this be merged/redirected to Auditing (Scientology)? Coolabahapple (talk) 00:25, 13 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Might well make sense. I didn't think about that as a target and probably should have. That said, I'm rusty on the CoS stuff and so don't feel hugely qualified to comment on if that is the right place for a merge or not. Hobit (talk) 02:37, 13 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Merge in part to Auditing (Scientology). The article cannot stand on its own, though some elements of it are worth preserving in another locale. NoCOBOL (talk) 07:19, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nomination. The text is unsupported by acceptable sources and reads like the personal effort of people interested in promoting the subject and advocating for Scientology. (See, for instance, the recommendations for further reading.) Texts that are not duly supported by citations that establish their subjects' encyclopaedic value are neither "merged" nor "used" elsewhere in Wikipedia; they're deleted. -The Gnome (talk) 11:02, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
