  == Identity Fusion ==  This is regarding http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Identity_Fusion and https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Drmies&oldid;=589010584#Identity_Fusion  I've been reading up on new entry requirements, specifically the notability requirement you raised, and believe that Identity Fusion meets the general notability requirement as defined here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability .     Specifically, the topic has received significant coverage that directly discuss in detail the topic, and no background knowledge in the primary research is necessary to understand these sources of coverage. Below I have listed a number of sources in which identity fusion is discussed outside of primary sources (i.e., academic peer-reviewed journal articles). The reliability of both the primary and secondary sources is high (i.e., not reported merely on blog/opinion sites). Most of the sources below are independent of the subject (i.e., not directly produced by authors of the primary work, although often the authors of the primary work are interviewed or discussed).     A news feature on identity fusion by the Association for Psychological Science:  http://www.psychologicalscience.org/index.php/news/releases/people-with-fused-identities-are-willing-to-die-for-their-social-group.html     A featured research news piece on identity fusion by sciencedaily  http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/08/100812111059.htm     A lay treatment of identity fusion as part of a feature article coupled with multiple commentaries from other academics, many of whom are not affiliated with the primary research on identity fusion, thus showing breadth of interest.  http://socialevolutionforum.com/past-focus-articles/     An interview with Harvey Whitehouse that discusses identity fusion.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIzsRlqcRXg     This interview was posted on another major religious studies site by members unaffiliated with identity fusion primary research.  https://plus.google.com/u/0/+Religiousstudiesproject/posts     Another interview with Harvey Whitehouse published by the Centre for Human Evolution, Cognition, and Culture, a group unaffiliated with primary research on identity fusion  http://www.youtube.com/user/HECCtv?feature=watch     The identity fusion concept is highlighted in the Wikipedia entry for ‘self-concept’.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-concept#cite_note-swann2012-29     A video in Spanish by UNED to convey psychological research to the public. It has over 20,000 views on youtube. The video predominately highlights self-verification theory (which is a Wikipedia entry) and makes links toward the end to identity fusion.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IHlPYivIZc     A summary piece on a cognitive science research reporting website in Spanish on identity fusion:  http://medina-psicologia.ugr.es/cienciacognitiva/?p=625#more-625     RTVE (largest public radio corporation in Spain) has featured identity fusion in two programs:  http://www.rtve.es/alacarta/audios/uned/uned-fusionados-espana-futbol-identidad-01-11-12/1570403/  http://www.rtve.es/alacarta/audios/uned/uned-quien-daria-vida-grupo-fusion-identidad-como-predictor-del-comportamiento-extremo/907833/     A research summary article published on a medical news website in Spanish:  http://www.news-medical.net/news/20100819/123/Spanish.aspx    Please let me know if there are any other requirements for initial publication that have not been met. My understanding is that the bar for creation of a new entry does not require that the article be written perfectly and that by posting the article, other wikipedia members (and potentially new members interested by the topic) will be able to openly edit it.
