Panatheism

This page should be deleted as it has been moved to Wiktionary. However, my PROD was deleted because the page has apparently been PRODed before. D O N D E groovily Talk to me 01:38, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment it should redirect somewhere. 65.93.15.125 (talk) 05:53, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Soft redirect to wiktionary, surely.—S Marshall T/C 12:07, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Wiktionary, at best. It is not even clear if the word is really used, outside of to make an example. Even then WP:Wikipedia is not a dictionary.Kitfoxxe (talk) 20:31, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to Annie Dillard, author of Teaching a Stone to Talk: Expeditions and Encounters. The term as used in the book gets a bit of discussion in other sources, but nothing I am finding really indicates that we should have a separate article. I have added pan-atheism to the find sources template above, as it seems to be used interchangeably with the hyphenless, and older databases care about such things. - 2/0 (cont.) 16:47, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Disagree with that merge, as the target article has no mention of this word or even of atheism, and barely mentions the book in question. Also note the book is a collection of essays, only one which mentions the word. This is just more ammo to the delete/Wiktionary argument.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Either redirect to Wiktionary or merge with Nontheism and redirect. Either way don't keep! The article doesn't tell me anything about the term beyond a definition. The Russell quote may express the same sentiment as the person who coined the term, it doesn't establish notability that a well-known philosopher happened to say the same thing. —Tom Morris (talk) 12:38, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Just a term, not notable. Just atheism.--Antwerpen Synagoge (talk) 00:18, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as a dictionary definition. I don't think that we do soft crossproject redirects, or do we? Sandstein 05:50, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
