Faith-based community[edit]

Notability not established. The article is rather vague about what its topic really is. WP already has articles on related topics including: Monestary, Ashram, and Commune (which has a section on religious communes.) Beyond that I don't think the Amish, the Religious right in the USA (implied in the "see alsos"), and the nations of Israel and Iran should be lumped together under one title, as the article seems to be doing.

Redirect to Intentional community. I'm fairly certain faith-based communities are a subset of intentional communities. Viriditas (talk) 04:10, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm with the above.--Ipatrol (talk) 00:36, 8 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I agree that the title should be left with a "Redirect" to Intentional community or Commune, which may be merged anyway. The title "Faith-based community" should continue to exist with the redirect so users can find the information they seek. The term, while vague, has been bandied about enough that people may come to WP to investigate. Some will suppose the term refers to a commune while others may think it refers to persons of faith scattered throughout a larger population. http://www.allbusiness.com/specialty-businesses/non-profit-businesses/458156-1.html Yopienso (talk) 06:10, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
