Nothing but etymology, which is dictionary content. Also includes unrelated section on the word "Wicca". Powers ^T 15:42, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The talk page indicates that this complicated etymology was broken out of the Witchcraft and Wicca articles. There's easily enough referenced information here to support a stand alone article; it couldn't be merged back without either loss of data or undue emphasis; and the etymology is complicated enough to warrant a full treatment. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 16:55, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep A whole article on the etymology of a word. Isn't this what makes Wikipedia a great resource? Francium12 16:38, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
