[edit] Solus Christi Brothers

Solus Christi Brothers (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Unsourced article on a religious organisation. Couldn't find anything reliable on Google. Fails WP:ORG and WP:V. Contested prod. MER-C 05:49, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete, not verifiable through LexisNexis either. - Mgm|(talk) 11:07, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Existence of this organisation seems to be confirmed by neutral sources, including what appears to be a news page of the Autonomous Ukrainian Orthodox Church in America and a directory of places in the Milwaukee area that accept cars as charitable donations. This is good enough to convince me that the existence of this group is not a hoax. Monastic orders may not have big Internet footprints. I must admit I was suspicious, mostly because of the name: why would a Ukrainian order have a Latin name? My purely subjective opinion is that even a small monastic order of a small church is encyclopedia material. The article still requires cleanup for NPOV. - Smerdis of Tlön 15:05, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. External links have been added to the Autonomous Ukrainian Orthodox Church in America of which Solus Christi Brothers is a monastic community, and the link to the Solus Christi website has also been added. Why a Latin name for an Eastern community? Well, a Latin name is more understandable and, therefore, more universal, in the United States and in Latin America than a Ukrainian name would be. Mention of the Autonomous Ukrainian Orthodox Church in America of which Solus Christi Brothers is a community is listed at Eastern Orthodox Church Dioceses. Archdeacon Sergiy

  • Keep. The article seems objective and to-the point and seems to conform with Wikipedia guidelines. Solus Christi is a valid, US government recognized religious institution, and can hardly be called "religioncruft" if by that term is meant a "sect." Archbishop Ioan vladykaioan

weak keep but only if references can be found. It does indeed seem like a first edit, and perhaps something could be done with it in the next few day.DGG 23:52, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep per Smerdis. -- Bpmullins | Talk 00:03, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per Smerdis, Archbishop Ioan, etc. The article seems substantive, supported well by references and should be kept under the category of monasticism. Mych | talk 20:32, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
