Unless anyone has objections I plan on improving this page and developing it into a genre page like Horror podcast except based on the Category:Religion and spirituality podcasts genre. After some development I'll move it from the current "Godcasting" to "Religion and Spirituality Podcasts." TipsyElephant ( talk) 05:40, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

The Boston Globe source written by Megan Tench requires a subscription or payment to access it's contents. I'm not sure how paid sources are used, but if anyone knows then go for it. I'll probably ask in the Teahouse or Helpdesk at some point otherwise. TipsyElephant ( talk) 15:08, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
I'm looking over other Wikipedia pages that cover genres and I've found a few ideas for potential sections that could be added to this article. For instance, sections dedicated to decades (i.e. 00s, 10s, 20s), subgenres or hybrid genres (i.e. Christian, Muslim, Jewish or Methodist, Baptist, Anglican, etc.), lists of religious podcast networks, religious podcasting in different countries, live events, Criticisms/controversies/reception, and impact/influence on society.

I can't actually find the patent that the article claims Craig Patchett has on the term Godcast. Does anyone have a link to the patent or at least a source stating that he patented the term. Otherwise, would it be appropriate to remove from the article? TipsyElephant ( talk) 03:07, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

Godcasting → Religion and spirituality podcast – The article is a dictionary entry for an old neologism that never gained popular usage, which violates the guidelines outlined by WP:NOTSLANG. When searching for variations of the subject title in Google News, there are little to no sources that use the word as defined here and instead there are quite a few with alternative meanings (i.e. Casting an actor as God, Podcasting better than other people, podcasting about hip hop "gods", invoking spiritual deities, etc). When searching online dictionaries, entries for "godcasting" are virtually non-existent, but "godcast" comes up occasionally. There are other neologisms with just as much legitimacy as "Godcasting", which do not have Wikipedia articles for many of the same reasons (i.e. "Cyber Sermons", "iGod", and "Pod Preachers"). Given the lack of depth in content and ambiguous meaning the current article as a dictionary entry likely does not meet WP:N (the article was previously nominated for deletion on two separate occasions here and here). Considering the origins of the term, the article could be moved to "The Godcast Network" or "Craig Patchett", however there are even fewer sources for those subjects and the move would likely result in a deletion based on WP:N. Given that the term "godcast" can be defined as a religion and spirituality podcast the title "Religion and spirituality podcast" would be more appropriate in light of the guideline outlined at WP:COMMONNAME. In addition, there are already articles like Horror podcast and Political podcast that have corresponding categories at Category:Horror podcasts and Category:Political podcasts, whereas there is a category named Category:Religion and spirituality podcasts without a corresponding Religion and spirituality podcast article. When words such as "religion", "spirituality", and "podcast" are searched for on Google News there are substantial sources because the subject is much broader in scope, and the subject will likely continue gaining content as podcasts are likely to continue to be used for religion and spirituality purposes.
