Is this article necessary?

[edit]

What is the point of this article? An article on Rowan Williams' views on sexuality, or specifically on homosexuality, might be worth including (I don't know how Wikipedia guidelines on notability would relate to such a proposal), but is it really worth having a page on a single lecture, most of which was not actually about the topic highlighted in this article (i.e., homosexuality)? Perhaps the problem is that the article is simply mis-named: the majority of the content is not actually about the lecture, after all.

It's more of an essay than a lecture, and it has actually been published as a book, which is available at Amazon.com. [1] The essay has been very important in the overall debate about Anglicanism and homosexuality and has been repeatedly cited both by opponents and defenders of homosexuality in the Anglican communion. Williams himself has also frequently mentioned the book when explaining his general perspective within the Anglican crisis. ADM (talk) 23:23, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As it stands, only the first two subsections of the article refer to 'The Body's Grace', and they only refer to a small part of the lecture. The remaining seven sections of the article refer more generally to RW's views on homosexuality. So, as I say, this might make sense as an article on RW's views on homosexuality more generally - it isn't really an article specifically on 'The Body's Grace'. The article should be renamed. --mahigton (talk) 11:18, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
