Bunch of Theories
[edit]Capital T is not a misspelling! Statements in the article are dubious. Occult science is just a word, not the concept. Article is completely unnecessary, it contains original research or original idea. --Gdje je nestala duša svijeta (talk) 16:29, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
Assessment comment
[edit]The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Occult science/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.
Class: Stub, broad information, lacks specific characterization of concepts for casual reader. No Cites, unsourced, and leaning toward an essay or WP:OR
Import: In current format the article is specialized within Occult studies. --Trippz (talk) 19:41, 7 July 2008 (UTC) |

Adding RS
[edit]@Layzner: @Rhododendrites: @Midnightblueowl: I am trying to collect some of the WP:RS that was described in the WP:AfD and add it to the article, if appropriate. I haven't figured out the best way to add it. I am open to suggestions. (If it is redirected the same issue will come up).
