The result of the discussion was merge. There hasn't been much discussion, so I can only count 2 supports and 1 oppose. Also it's been 3 months since this discussion was created and the article still only has 2 refs. FaviFake (talk) 16:27, 10 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

This stub has been unsourced for 14 years. It's something of a Fork as well. It's time to merge. Bearian (talk) 02:43, 7 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Egalitarian community is a subtype of an intentional community--Geysirhead (talk) 17:14, 7 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

I will see what I can do about sourcing some citations over the next few days. Peaceray (talk) 18:02, 7 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

I would argue that egalitarian community is a sufficiently special case of intentional community that it should be a separate article. All of the US based egalitarian communities are income sharing communes, very different from cohousing or student coops or residential coops. Paxus Calta (talk)
