[edit] Sublime (expressing church in youth culture)

non-notable local church youth club. I tagged it for speedy deletion, but subsequent improvements made it assert notability and I think any prod tag would be removed. Anyway, it's just of local interest. Graham87 09:11, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

• I strongly disagree - Firstly Sublime and the Big Story have had a huge impact all over the south of Englad as well as in America, Germany and South Africa to name but a few so as you can see its not meerley local. Secondly its not a youth club, its a youth congregation. Finally its not only of local interest - the website has hits from over 40 countries every month.

Yes, and the article is well-written and shows this. However, although the group has done a lot, it's not notable according to wikipedia standards. Graham87 11:09, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

• I agree with Wardie9025. I think it would be unfair to remove such an important group from the database as it is clearly a large group with members all around the world. User:Ajv2809 — Ajv2809 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
• Delete A youth group at a church in a city of 220,000 which only started 10 years ago, and an article which asserts only very marginal notability? No thanks. -- Kicking222 22:32, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
• The website has got well over a million hits from a world wide audience, there is not just a local interest but a global interest, also as a part of community church it is inbeded with the history of the church, for example Billy Graham's first talk in england was at central hall community church, yes it may be a youth group of only over a hundred but the effects of this youth group are not just southampton they are Africa, India, Germany, America, Spain, France.. ect. Other noteable things to come from sublime, the cutting edge events, which "Delerious?" played. Delerious? are a widely known christian rock band with global sucess, and they have important history with the community church in particular the youth,(sublime) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 172.141.49.224 (talk • contribs).
• Delete Not notable enough. - Joshua Johaneman 00:38, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete No notability asserted. Website hits are not enough; show us how this group in anyway meets the notability requirements in WP:ORG. NeoChaosX [talk | contribs] 02:53, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. as per NeoChaosX. Show us that it meets WP:ORG, then it can stay AmitDeshwar 07:40, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
