I propose merging Religious calling into Vocation. Both articles are rated Start-class, and there is significant overlap in their content.
I worry that the existence of two separate articles seems to represent a WP:POVFORK. In particular, although the Religious calling entry discusses vocation in multiple denominations, the WikiProject LDS "supports" the entry, and the LDS template was at the bottom of the page until I removed it today. It seems that one article covering both entries could go some way to improving the quality of the topic's coverage on Wikipedia by synthesising the information on both entries. WP:LDS can make a separate entry specific to the LDS church if there is sufficient source material to support it. IgnatiusofLondon (talk) 13:41, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
