significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, would not apply for fringe. On the contrary, it explicitly states that
the notability of a fringe theory must be judged by statements from verifiable and reliable sources, not the proclamations of its adherents.What the 'Notability versus acceptance' section in WP:NFRINGE actually says is that the fact that a theory is not accepted should not itself be a reason to declare it non-notable. That's of course not to be reversed into the claim that all not-accepted theories are notable, just because they are mentioned in non-independent, unreliable sources. ☿ Apaugasma ( talk ☉) 21:42, 18 November 2021 (UTC)

In particular, the relative space that an article devotes to different aspects of a fringe theory should follow from consideration primarily of the independent sources. Points that are not discussed in independent sources should not be given any space in articles.Merge is not acceptable as this is a completely unsourced WP:FRINGE article that reads as WP:NOTHOWTO. Just as the consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Angle (astrology), a delete/Redirect to House (astrology) is acceptable to me. Venkat TL ( talk) 11:44, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
