To-do list for Afterlife:

Expand the lead section to a full 3 or 4 paragraphs
Pinpoint areas to work on
Separate fraudulent experiments and research on this subject from that which is considered legitimate, i.e., that which is accepted as valid by the scientific community. The two categories (exposed fraud and legitimate science) should be listed in different sections under different titles. Lumping fraudulent research together with valid research may give the impression that all legitimate scientists reject the existence of life after death or, even worse, consider the very question absurd. If there is a consensus among scientists that the question of life after death is absurd, then research demonstrating the validity of this assertion should be offered. However, it seems obvious to this writer that no such consensus exists or can exist. 184.100.227.172 (talk) 00:11, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Reborn into this world[edit]

The individual "may be reborn into this world", this article says - should the article say that this is known as reincarnation?Vorbee (talk) 10:24, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

Christian soteriology[edit]

The section on Christian beliefs in the afterlife is headed by a tag saying "See also Christian eschatology". Eschatology is the doctrine of last things, so would a tag saying "See also soteriology be more appropriate?Vorbee (talk) 09:09, 16 December 2018 (UTC)

MEDRS[edit]

I have doubts that the sources provided in the most recent edit qualify as WP:MEDRS (possible yes for the first one, the second one is probably not WP:RS at all. I would also open the question to all references in this article: do they comply with WP:MEDRS and do they need to? Elizium23 (talk) 04:25, 28 January 2020 (UTC)

Afterlives in American Belief Systems[edit]

I'm not immensely knowledgeable on the topic, but I feel like this article is missing a brief rundown on afterlife beliefs from Native American cultures, especially since the Incan Pacha already has a relatively robust article on wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2606:A000:8A80:7D00:5CC0:BBEA:3E76:AAED (talk) 03:56, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
