  • Isn't it entirely possible and believable Ohio Womens Methodist Seminary either co-existed with Ohio Wesleyan Female College or was an original or alternate name name of OWFC? (For anyone else wondering about the Wesleyan/Methodist distinction, Ohio Wesleyan University, per its article Patnaik was the last to edit, was founded by Methodists in 1841; the Wesleyan Methodist church formally split from the Methodists in 1843.) Comparing a rural 19th century women's college to a "secret society" because Google provides no hits overstates and assumes bad faith. It's certainly verifiable one way or the other with hard copy sources, and we should assume good faith on the part of the creator. The article doesn't mention any man, so it doesn't seem "glorify" Stude62's great+grandfather as the nominator charges. In Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Monnett Weekend, it was not deleted for the reasons Patnaik alleges. And an article about a college is not a "POV fork" of an article about a patron of the college.
