147:. Article is well-referenced and it is a notable series of events. There is nothing speculative about what is recounted in the article; it takes no stance on the truth or falsity of the allegations that were investigated by church and government bodies. (A number of editors are working on the talk page towards consensus for a name change; a problem with the name is not even close to being a good reason to delete. The discussion/consensus process there should probably be permitted to run its course.) Nominator appears to have a long-standing problem with article's existence, having nominated it for
212:: "Snocrates, while many conclusions can be drawn all the time, not many conclusions other than the LDS church was involved in SRA can be drawn from this title. I've chosen to use something to end the discussion once and for all." Carter is the one proposing the page deletion. I agree with Snocrates "Article is well-referenced and it is a notable series of events. There is nothing speculative about what is recounted in the article; it takes no stance on the truth or falsity of the allegations that were investigated by church and government bodies."

to believe that the church participates in or condones satanic ritual abuse. A similarly misleading title would be "Serial murders and the US government." Titled so because citizens have committed serial murders. Also, the article requires refining to support more of it's claims and remove some bias. Hopefully edits in that direction aren't interfered with. The article implies a connection with a greater movement of accusations in the US; wouldn't this article and the topic in general be better served by combining them? --
461:. It's a fine article. The statements are neutral, and backed by multiple, reliable sources. Further, statements that officials have "...never been able to independently verify memories of satanic ritual abuse" seem to make it clear that the allegations were never proven. I also agree that the name should change.
507:
I agree that the topic is noteworthy and shouldn't disappear, but the title is very misleading. I had never heard of this topic previous to seeing the listed title; after reading the article, I can say that the title conveyed a much different content than what is actually there. The title leads one

This is not a personal nomination, it is professional. There has also been much argument over the name of the article which

Snocrates. The problems with the article on the talk page have largely involved concerns with the name of the article, not with its notability. I suggest keeping and then let consensus determine the name, per Snocrates. At time of creation, nominator accused me of anti-Mormon bias, but article
