spiritualism vs Spiritualism[edit]

Spiritualism when capitalized may be an earlier modern movement, but when not capitalized is a version of immaterialism simply like idealism and mentalism (philosophy) are and the article should reflect that.--dchmelik (t|c) 19:41, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. This article is about that early modern movement, Spiritualism, and links to it should be capitalized. There are separate articles, Spiritualism (beliefs) and Spiritualism (philosophy), for the uncapitalized uses. Skyerise (talk) 20:41, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

– This seems to be a surprise target for this word, as I would expect "spiritualism" to be be about the belief system or the philosophy, instead of a specific 19th - 20th century movement/religion. Natg 19 (talk) 17:56, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Spiritualism (beliefs) is just as notable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:13, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support. No surprises. Hyperbolick (talk) 22:41, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
