Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Whirling

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to Sufi whirling. The topic is about a form of dance allegedly distinct from the religious practice of Sufi whirling and the Tanoura (dance), apparently itself a form of the Sufi practice. However, despite walls of texts, apparent sockpuppetry and lots of assertions, the editor(s?) who would retain the article has not cited one reliable source that would speak to the notability of this allegedly distinct practice, as described in WP:N. This leads me to discount their arguments for keeping. Consensus is therefore that this is not a notable topic suited for a separate article, and that the content related to the various whirling practices needs to be reorganized. I am therefore for the time being redirecting the page to the Sufi form, but editors may make whichever editorial changes including mergers or disambiguations that may eventually gain consensus.  Sandstein  11:26, 20 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
