What criteria of inclusion, isnt this? IE, why is it up for deletion? It isnt original research, it is verifiable, that these are the 8 tenents of Pastafarianism, and it is fairly neutral (reporting what the beliefs of Pastafarianism). I am not a Pastafarian, I think it is a fairly silly take on God and relegion, but then a lot of people would say the same thing about my take (orthodox Jew) on God and relegion. Would you delete the tenents of Reconstructionist Judaism? If Wikipedia had been around in the days of Martin Luther, would you delete his (?? how mny questions did he have ??) (the things he nailed to the church door)? Certainly there are many people who consider themselves Pastafarians. I just think it is, absurd that this would be up for deletion.
No reason is given for deletion. The list of items seems an interesting detail to this "gospel," and one that I was glad to learn about. Why delete it? I suppose that this page could be merged with the page on Flying Spaghetti Monster, but I don't know how to mark the page for a merge. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.92.18.96 (talk • contribs)
- See the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Eight_"I'd_Really_Rather_You_Didn'ts", where merging appears to be the likely outcome. You can mark a page for merging by applying the {{merge}} tag, or by just copying the content yourself and integrating it into another article. You can even do that while the deletion discussion is underway. Sandstein 04:45, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
