- Author's note: There are various spiritual communities and forums and schools as well listed on the WIKI website. You will find some on the Sri Aurobindo template, including Auroconf, which is comparable to the Vishaal Study Group. I do not consider this an advertisement for this group ... it is a declaration of its existence. It seems unfair to allow some forums a wiki-page and not others. I believe the history AND the current status of the Supramental Yoga begun by Sri Aurobindo is a valid issue and deserves a Wiki presence, as much as do groups such as Auroconf or the journals listed on the 'journals and forums' section of the Sri Aurobindo template.
Do you have suggestions as to how to present this community/forum/school in a way that is comparable/compatible to all the other one's you allow. Thanks, Saberlotus
- My own opinion is not to look at 'precedent', but at the WP policies instead. To be eligible for inclusion, the article would have to show notability and for web-based activity it should meet web notability criteria. Crum375 21:46, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom, is also spam. From history - "This online group is 'open to all serious seekers', and requires a bi-annual fee of $105 per year for participation.".--Andeh 20:48, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:WEB. Alexa is over 2 million, Google finds a total of one reference to it, mentioning a startup date less than three months ago. Brand new, few visitors, no notice from elsewhere at his time. Fan1967 20:58, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Advertizing for a new (started March 21, 2006) web site, no reliable source cited for basic or web-specific notability. Crum375 21:42, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
