Original research combined with nonsense. There is no such thing as "Slavic shamanism", no more than "Slavic druidism", "Slavic kabbalism", "Slavic voodooism", and so on, although one may concoct the corresponding texts with a bit of fantasy. All these terms are culture-specific and let them be so. --Altenmann >talk 06:14, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

:P.S. "Baba Yaga's Book of Witchcraft" self-published by a tarot-reader as the main source of wisdom there? Really? Hold my beer. I have a couple of articles to write... --Altenmann >talk 06:26, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

  • The first reference (Gieysztor 2006) is available via Google, but the cited page does not contain anything substantial about Slavic shamanism. Delete, at least based on current sources. 84.251.164.143 (talk) 06:40, 1 May 2025 (UTC)
  • :What also makes this article suspect is that the only other article that links here from its main text (and not from templates or See alsos) is Regional forms of shamanism. However, the text is not independent of the text in this article. If this were a thing, I would expect more incoming links. 84.251.164.143 (talk) 18:30, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

:Delete, probably could be redirected to Slavic Paganism, which would probably cover whatever topic this is currently trying to be about. -Samoht27 (talk) 16:17, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
