Orphan[edit]

If you look at this you will see that the article is an orphan, as there is no articles that link directly to this article. There are only two links to the article at all from the article space, both which link thru the redirect on David Persuitte to point here. -- 208.81.184.4 (talk) 15:51, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please see the discussion at Talk:Criticism of Mormonism. I didn't realize we hadn't updated the links - I will fix them, and then remove the tag.--Descartes1979 (talk) 01:26, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notable?[edit]

Is this book notable under the standards of WP:Notability (book)? I know it is often cited by Mormon studies scholars, and has been reviewed by FARMS, but I'm not sure whether it passes the threshold of being sufficiently notable to merit its own article. The upper tier of notable Mormon studies books include No Man Knows My History: The Life of Joseph Smith, Joseph Smith: Rough Stone Rolling, and The Mountain Meadows Massacre, which clearly deserve their own articles. But a lot of other books that are far more notable than Persuitte's, like D. Michael Quinn's Early Mormonism and the Magic Worldview, don't have their own articles. (Though maybe that one, in particular, should, given that it has earned awards.) COGDEN 21:02, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
