Add Atheism info box to all atheism related talk pages (use {{WikiProject Atheism}} or see info box)
Ensure atheism-related articles are members of Atheism by checking whether [[Category:Atheism]] has been added to atheism-related articles – and, where it hasn't, adding it.
Try to expand stubs. Ideas and theories about life, however, are prone to generating neologisms, so some stubs may be suitable for deletion (see deletion process).
State atheism needs a reassessment of its Importance level, as it has little to do with atheism and is instead an article about anti-theist/anti-religious actions of governments.

I have removed a wikilink to Persecution of Christians in the Soviet Union that was hidden in the lead behind the word "culminated". There is no content in the article dealing with the Soviet period, so it is inappropriate to mention this in the lead, especially when it implies that secularism = oppression. Nor is the Persecution of Christians in the Soviet Union an automatically appropriate article for content anyway - the treatment of the national Churches of Georgia and Armenia differed from that of the Russian Orthodox Church.

Actually this should be in here. You are taking the opposite view... secularism can be oppressive as well as Soviet, Chinese etc history reveals. It is completely appropriate that persecution of religion should be in here. The decline of religion in Georgia is due in part to imprisonment, execution, violence and alienation of property, along with relentless atheist propaganda for decades.
Whilst secularists are keen to point out extremism in religion, they are shyer in admitting the persecution of religion... in fact they take great pains to claim Communism was somehow not atheist.
With this in mind, I am sticking a NPOV tag on this. This article must tackle historic aggressive secularism which has occurred in Georgia and not just be a propaganda piece. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.76.153.195 (talk) 19:14, 15 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
