Doesn't seem to meet WP:BKCRIT. There's not much in here that's not already covered in, or could easily be moved to, the main article about William Penn. Prof. Mc (talk) 20:46, 14 June 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]
- Follow-up: I have merged the info from No Cross, No Crown into the article on William Penn. Prof. Mc (talk) 20:50, 14 June 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

- Comment: So far I haven't found a lot of content that focuses on this writing specifically, which is slightly surprising given that Penn's article claims that this is one of his classic works. It's been repeatedly reprinted again and again since its initial creation, but when it is covered it tends to be in relation to Penn himself. Offhand I'm leaning towards a redirect with the history intact in the hopes that it could be restored one day if/when the coverage is found. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:31, 15 June 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]
- (EC) I'm having trouble with this one, because the title of the book appears to have been adopted as a subsequent slogan--or perhaps was already in popular use as such before Penn titled the book--and specific coverage of this particular book is not obvious. Tentatively merging should be fine, because there's really no reason the entire text of the article can't be covered in the parent article, but I see no reason why it couldn't also be split back out if a larger article can be written on the book itself.

- Redirect -- I suspect that the Quakers may regard this as one of their early devotional works. I thus suspect it is a significant work. However this article does not say much that does not already appear in the article on William Penn; indeed that is if anything rather better. There is nothing to merge, but we might redirect to William Penn - section Persecutions, and categorise it as a redirect with possibilities. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:50, 28 June 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]
