Delete

1. Off mission. This article does nothing Wikipedia doesn't do better Hastur! (talk) 05:39, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Keep

1. Eh, I like it. Chef Moosolini’s Ristorante Italiano^{Make a Reservation} 06:07, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
2. Hello!-Flandres (talk) 06:49, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
3. "Wikipedia does it better" is a very weak reason for delete. Spud (talk) 07:01, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

   Is having nothing to do with our mission and RationalWiki not being an encyclopedia better?-Hastur! (talk) 07:03, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

   Yes. Those are always good reasons to delete. But I don't agree with you in this case. Spud (talk) 07:59, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

4. Keep. It's missional in so far as it supports evolution pages. Bongolian (talk) 07:51, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
5. It's arguably marginal, but I'd say we should keep.Bob^{"Life is short and (insert adjective)"} 11:47, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

7. Maybe expand the article a bit? It's quite short. Gunther1987 (talk) 11:55, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
8. Keep. We're not an encyclopedia, but it has a number of WhatLinksHere results that mean it's presence should probably be kept. Techpriest ^{(I am Alpharius! / / / )} 10:47, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

Rename

1. As I said in the talk page (which was ignored), the article should/could contain analogy and homology. Those are quintessential to understanding evolution, just like microevolution and macroevolution are. And the topic is on-point in regards to the mission statement.

1. Analyzing and refuting pseudoscience and the anti-science movement;
2. Documenting the full range of crank ideas;
3. Explorations of authoritarianism and fundamentalism;
4. Analysis and criticism of how these subjects are handled in the media.
