Christianity in Goa

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This author has created so many pages with "Christianity in [an Indian city/state]". All of them says "Christianity is a minority in [an Indian city/state]" which is obviously WP:UNDUE. Vipin Hari || talk 19:23, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment How about a condensed nom for these? Overall, I'm not sure UNDUE is violated, because Christianity, like Islam, is a minority religion throughout India. Still, I don't see that there's a good call for separate breakout stubs like this. Jclemens (talk) 20:20, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. This article is different to the others in that the topic itself is significant. But we already have Roman Catholicism in Goa and Christianization of Goa dealing with it. I actually think this article is the primary topic, and the other articles should be merged into this one. StAnselm (talk) 20:52, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Indeed, the article is rather remarkable by its short size and lack of real content as compared to others in Category:Christianity in Goa, e.g. Goan Catholics! Vmenkov (talk) 01:36, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as nom, per WP:CRYSTAL and WP:ORIGINAL. Vipin Hari || talk 03:45, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How does WP:CRYSTAL apply here? The article doesn't contain any predictions. "Christianity is a minority in Goa, but it will soon become the majority" - that would be crystal-balling. StAnselm (talk) 05:03, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The existing articles cover the subject already.--Sodabottle (talk) 04:18, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The present bunch of "Christianity in X state" looks silly but this one deserves a keep as Christians still form a singnificant part of Goa's population (about 30%). While Roman Catholicism in Goa deals specifically with the largest denomination, this article could also talk about the other minor denominations.AFAIK there is a small native Marthomite population in Goa.Goan Catholics is a people-article and should not be equated with the rest of articles. --Deepak D'Souza (talk) 04:32, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I've done the relevant editing in preparation for a merge from Christianization of Goa. There still needs more work done in summarising Goa Inquisition, though. StAnselm (talk) 07:50, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect The article should be redirected to Christianization of Goa.--Sanfy (talk) 08:32, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

But that article is about the process, which logically fits as a "history" section of this article. StAnselm (talk) 08:35, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, now that it's been expanded significantly (from one sentences to a couple pages), talking both about the history and the present-day. Vmenkov (talk) 15:02, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep significant subject , suitable article. DGG ( talk ) 03:11, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
