[edit] Notability

It would seem to me that this church group is as notable or unnotable as most of the other church groups wikipedia pages. Is there any reason to think this one is less notable than othe Lutheran church groups? Smith03 22:32, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

I have removed the speedy delete template b/c this article isn't a candidate. If someone wants to delete the article, it will have to go through an AfD.--Alabamaboy 23:48, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

I suggest you read Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) to get an understanding of the notability issue. The question is not how this group compares to other groups (which may or may not meet the notability standards), but whether or not this group meets the Wikipedia standard of notability. Can you find some reliable, independent sources that have non-trivial coverage of this group? If so, please add them! It will make for a better encyclopedia article, and other editors will stop adding notability, prod, and speedy deletion requests. Hope that helps! --Fabrictramp 15:21, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
