Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brown priest
I hate to add more verbiage to this, but... The more I look at this list, the more I think it is a bad idea. A few of these people might even still be alive, which would make this a  issue. We are taking one scholar's list of names and calling them all "Nazis", essentially. Without the biographical info from Spicer's book, there is room for confusion - one link was going to Joseph Muller (priest), who was executed by the Nazis, and a few minutes research convinced me that a different Joseph Muller was probably intended by Spicer. We are also accepting Spicer's judgements on people - some of the existing links go to people I would agree are "brown priests" by Spicer's definition, but some are priests who had more complex relationships with the Nazi regime. Who do you call a "brown priest"? Joseph Lortz, for instance, apparently left the party by 1938 and removed material favorable to the Nazis from his works. Placing his name next to that of more committed Nazis is problematic
