This article is largely erroneous, non encyclopedic, opinionated, incomplete, and loosely formulated. Nuwaubian Hotep 20:44, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

no vote fixing incorrect AfD step 2.--Gay Cdn (talk) (email) (Contr.) 20:17, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete nn neologism. --Pboyd04 21:40, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment please note that the abundant tags were added by the Afd nominator. --Pboyd04 21:40, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Notable kind of colective idiotism. See template:Nuwaubian for more of it. Rename neologism into someting that correctly reflects the content. `'mikka (t) 21:42, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep - Looks notable, but needs a lot of cleanup. I went to the article to find out what it was, but I'm not really sure what it is. — Omegatron 22:19, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - From what I understand of it, it's just on the good side of notability. BigHaz 22:33, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - Notable especially given current events[1][2], interesting, well-referenced, but in need of some clean-up; the AFD nominator is acting from partisan bias against an objective look at his belief system.--Moorlock 23:19, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - No where in main stream media including the New York Times are Nuwaubians mentioned for being apart of the recent arrest of the 5 Haitians (1 illegal, others 1st and 2nd generation) in Florida for supposely plotting to blow up the Sears Tower. It's my genuine opinion that a ghost writer who also uses the negologistic term "Nuwaubianism" has been responsible for spreading this rumour over the internet with falsely written articles made to appear legit such as this one [[3]]. Nuwaubian Hotep 02:25, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  The title of the article can be changed. AfD is about whether Wikipedia should have an article about these people or none at all. — Omegatron 03:28, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, other factors concerning the article would include the author's sheer inablity to project his thesis in an intelligent, logical manner. Here's an example of Nuwaubian literature for comparison. [[4]] Nuwaubian Hotep 03:39, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - The AfD nominator is trying to summon support from Nuwaubian mailing lists:

"To ancient_egiptian_order@yahoogroups.com, holytablets@yahoogroups.com

"Plezse vote this article off Wikipedia.

Are we not allowed to petition voters? If not, then I apologize. I'm fairly new to the Wikipedia medium. Nuwaubian Hotep 05:31, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: certainly seems notable, well-sourced, external links confirming notability. -- NORTH ^talk 08:27, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article is not well sourced in the least, he's referencing user created websites with half truths. Nuwaubian Hotep 16:37, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • The article may be edited and disputed at article's talk page Talk:Nuwaubianism. Please address specific disagreements there, one by one. `'mikka (t) 23:52, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Notable. --SJK 09:57, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• keep please it is notable and well referenced too Yuckfoo 20:26, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
