[edit] Grace Catholic Church
Delete. Non-notable, micro-denomination. What links one can work out from an attempt at verifiability through Google mostly seem to be Wikipedia mirrors. If this church has made a splash, it doesn't seem anyone's talking about it. —Preost talk contribs 22:06, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. While it is a relatively small church, it appears notable enough for mine. Capitalistroadster 22:41, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
- Any chance of some evidence? Kappa 23:04, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
- Keep as per Capitalistroadster. Plus it seems to be a real denomination, and the article is npov as far as I can see Jcuk 23:53, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: Being real doesn't make it notable. My bathroom is real. It doesn't get a Wikipedia article without some press or scholarly coverage. —Preost talk contribs 23:57, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
- How have you determined that it is real? The only evidence presented by the article is a web site. "Having a web site" does not equate to "real". Jamie Kane has a web site. The only evidence locatable elsewhere is Alexis Tancibok being described as being a bishop of the Grace Catholic Church, where evidently he himself is the source of that information. Alexis Tancibok's word by itself is insufficient. Uncle G 20:36, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- Delete no evidence of it being verified or having a large following.Gateman1997 00:05, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- Keep if this is true. However, it may be a hoax. Should be verified. -- JJay 00:38, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, no evidence of being an established denomination. Hopefully someone will find something to change my mind. Kappa 02:10, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- This purported denomination has no mention in Addis & Arnold's, no mention in the Catholic Encyclopaedia, and no detectable presence apart from a web site and incidental mention in coverage of the activities of Alexis Tancibok. I can find no evidence that anyone outside of its founder(s) has acknowledged its existence. The article itself cites no sources. Delete. Uncle G 20:36, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
