Keep This is a humorous userbox with only a tenuous link to religion. There's certainly nothing divisive about it, nor can I imagine any situation in which it could be used for electioneering. - Ne ll is 04:14, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

keep discloses editor's pov and/or religious views, contributing to an open and honest atmosphere and understanding of editor's bias' which makes for a stronger and more creditable 'pedia. also can be seen as a statement of editing intrest, as someone who identifies as someone who rejects the pope would be more likley to edit related articles, finally, no need for these nominations until there is a userbox policy in place or a consensus to mandate these deletions.

Keep. The different subjects/categories of articles on Wikipedia are almost endless (i.e. religion, sports, comics, germs, videogames, etc). Why would we not want to have like-minded users grouped together to bounce ideas off each other on a particular subject? I get a sense that some people feel the Atheists will not want to support the Christianity/Islam/Judaism articles or vice versa, and that's ridiculous. I want informative articles on every subject possible, whether or not I agree with it personally, philosophically, or spiritually. ♫ Bitch and Complain Sooner ♫ 15:41, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Because there is obviously a mass AfD on religious userboxes, I'm going to say this here, and only here, but it applies to every userbox up for AfD right now. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, but it is also a community. A very large global community at that. For this reason, it is good to get to know different beliefs because it is good for the learning process (forgive my bad grammar). Beliefs are important to us all, but to say they divide Wikipedians is just....not true. These userboxes were AfD'd because they were "divisive" and per the Wikipedia:Userbox policy poll. I read the policy, which I support, by the way, and I found no objections to religious userboxes. Crazyswordsman 04:49, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As the creator of this template, I might have a non-neutral stance per definition, but I fail to recognize the "divisive" character of the template. It is clearly not a userbox related to religion, which have been labeled "divisive" (although I did not perceive they were a particular threat to the community), but a userbox related to ancestry. The intention of the userbox is clearly expressed in it's own text. Userboxes related to ancestry have not been classified as "divisive". No reason to delete. --Vargher 15:01, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
keep discloses editor's pov and/or religious affliiation, contributing to an open and honest atmosphere and understanding of editor's bias' which makes for a stronger and more creditable 'pedia. also can be seen as a statement of editing intrest, as someone who identifies as a member of a given religion would be more likley to edit related articles, finally, no need for these nominations until there is a userbox policy in place or a consensus to mandate these deletions. Mike McGregor (Can) 15:24, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Wikipedia:Userbox policy poll does not apply in this case. Those who use it as an argument for deletion misinterpret the userbox. The original wording of the paragraph of the Wikipedia:Userbox policy poll which is presumed to apply here is the following: This provision should be interpreted fairly liberally, and would likely include templates related to language, expertise, geographic or national focus, wiki-status (admin etc.), project membership, editing interests, and wiki-tasking (mediator etc.). (check here). This userbox does relate to ancestry, which frequently, though not always, is a direct declaration of a possible national / geographic focus and language, although the latter issue is not the case here. It does NOT identify a religious belief, nor is it a userbox which can be treated as a so-called "anti"-userbox. By stating that the user in question is "not an adherent of Judaism" the userbox does not reveal personal beliefs or attack Judaism as a belief - it merely helps to distinguish between the concept of an ethnic Jew and a believing Jew / a Jew according to the Halakha. Prove me wrong, but -at least in my eyes- this particular userbox does not meet any of the criteria for deletion. --Vargher 22:43, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
