Merge with Religion in United States prisons edit
Time to merge I think, the other article in may of this year became a more comprehensive article on the same topic, though it started out as specific about islam. nonetheless, no need for two stubby articles when one will do. any objections? along the lines of the prod request, perhaps if no one objects by 12/22 we can move all the content here to the other article. - Owlmonkey (talk) 19:08, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
Yes, there are objections to a merge. Prison religion also happens outside of the USA. Dizzledorf (talk) 19:11, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
