Deletion

I requested that this site be taken off of the blacklist quite awhile back on Meta - look here. If someone has a joint admin account, I'd appreciate having this looked into. Url in question is: http://www.r-k-p.prv.pl. Apparently it has been discussed before, but I've not been able to discern what the outcome was. - WeniWidiWiki 20:27, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The external link has been restored after apparently being removed from the spam blacklist. Rodzimy Kościół Polski. Furthermore, this group is highly represented over at the Polish wikipedia, but unfortunately I don't speak Polish and cannot flesh out the material in this entry. This group is also a member of the World Congress of Ethnic Religions. - WeniWidiWiki 20:53, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

there is no evidence that this meets WP:ORG. Until a dedicated third-party WP:RS can be presented, this should be merged into the parent topic, Slavic Neopaganism. The fact that there is a developed article at pl-wiki does nothing: if you check out the "references" given there, they consist of a bunch of urls, including r-k-p.prv.pl, the web archive of a geocities.com page, and a neopagan blog hosted at rodzimowiercy.pl. That's it. No other references even on Polish wiki. --dab (𒁳) 14:59, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Claiming RKP (native Polish Church) is not a notable organization shows only one's ignorance in the matter. First of all, Slavic reconstructionist religion called rodzimowierstwo in Polish or rodna vera in Russian (and meaning "native faith") is still of a niche type religion. There are rather thousands than millions of rodnovers (Slavic faith followers), neither there are any scandals related to this environment out there, so you won't find too much coverage in the media, eg. in New York Times or Reuters.

Anyway, in the "native faith" (and neo-pagan) community, Native Polish Church is quite a notable organization, being one of four registered rodnover religious organizations in Poland, among Rodzima Wiara (NAtive Faith), Slowianska Wiara (Slavic Faith) and Polski Kosciol Slowianski (Polish Slavic Church, which doesn't seem to be active any more). Moreover, people from this organization give the interviews to the Polish media, including TV, radio and the press (paper and online). Moreover, there's quite a lot of scientific (anthropological, etnographical, sociological etc) research being done on this phenomena, along with conferences on neo-paganism being organized, as this one:

http://www.neopoganstwowpolsce.pl/ "Neo-paganism in Poland" - quite a large scholarly/scientific conference about the topic.

For citations go here for example:

http://gniazdo.rodzimowiercy.pl/dat/bibliografia.xls

the file contains citations of the scientific works about Rodnover comunity. While here:

http://amu.academia.edu/MariuszFilip/Papers/341210/Zakon_Zadrugi_Polnocny_Wilk_._Nacjonalizm_jako_pierwiastek_konstruujacy_tozsamosc_wspolczesnych_neopogan_istow_rodzimowiercow_polskich

you will find something special about nationalist factions of rodnover community

Go do some research in the Polish Internet, there are more than 42,000 matches to "Rodzimy Kościół Polski" on Google. If information about Wiccans, Neo-Druids or Nordic faith followers (eg. Asatru, Odinists, Troth etc) and organizations fits for wikipedia, there is no reason why Slavic faith should lack coverage here. I'm sorry you don't know Polsih but this doesn't justify deletion on the topics you simply don't understand because of language issues. Critto (talk) 01:44, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
