Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Purgatory, Roman Catholic teaching
Roman Catholic doctrine about purgatory is just the same whether you believe in it or not, therefore it's perfectly possible under  to describe what it states, as well as the stance of  believers and non-believers, in one article. Looking at the history, I see the issue in part is that one/some editors feel that it needs a separate article to explain in detail because of the jargon (mortal and venial sin, etc). That really seems an argument for a collective editorial blitz on making that detail accessible, and there's plenty of room for liposuction of un-terse explanation and unnecessary detail, such as the huge verbatim quotes from ''The Catechism of the Catholic Church'' (see Wikipedia:Don't include copies of primary sources
