Laurentian Wesleyan Church

Article about a fairly recent church (for a church that is) written entirely by the pastor himself (see the talk page) with little evidence of notability, that is, it has a website, and was written about about in the local newspaper because it sends books around the world. While this is a worthy cause, its nothing unique. Jac16888 (talk) 20:08, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep--(Pretty much copied from talk page:) As it is, the church isn't really very notable--there are simply few references to it, to put it mildly. Besides, what is a serious concern is the extensive, extensive "Current Events" section, which reads like an advertisement--those things aren't really events, and if they're current events, they are not the kind of thing one should find in an encyclopedia. Current events belong in a newspaper. Summarizing that whole paragraph into a sentence or two and moving it up in the article might allay some editors' concerns.

Delete Absolutely no proof of notability given. Why a weak keep? Nyttend (talk) 20:31, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Wikipedia is not a free web hosting service. A lot of churches are notable such as Willow Creek Community Church. This church appears to be a nice local church that is not notable outside of its community. Remember, it's not that the church itself would be bad, it's just that an article about the church isn't appropriate for this encyclopedia.--Paul McDonald (talk) 21:29, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I don't see evidence for notability from reliable, third-party sources. VG ☎ 14:16, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
