The two meanings given here are so diverse as to suggest this article be split - not that there is much said about either, but there is a certain amount of folklore, mythology, imagary and historical information that is available to add to the railway usage. Any comments? Lynbarn 23:24, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
The Ffestiniog references are only to "deviation" (a classic British railway term for which many citations could be found) and to "deviationists" much used by and in reference to volunteers working on the Ffestiniog Railway Deviation and for which many citations are also to be found. However, neither railways in general nor the Ffestiniog in particular have anying to do with "Deviationism" which is a political term invented by communists. The FR and its Deviationists have no place in this article which should be deleted since all that is left is a short dictionary definition and Wikipedia is not a dictionary. If the railway references are to be retained it should be in an article called perhaps "Railway Deviation" - but not "Deviationism" for which there is no railway precident NoelWalley 11:43, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
