Deeper Christian Life Ministry

Non-notable obscure church wit no credible references รัก-ไทย (talk) 16:24, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep - sending a well-referenced notable article to AfD with this type of nomination rationale, suggests that the nominating editor disregards or is unaware of Wikipedia's Deletion Policy, which stipulates that editors are required to conduct several steps BEFORE nominating an article for deletion. The article contains enough reliable sources, including newspaper articles & notable books. Just a simple Google News search will reveal the huge amount of available reliable sources on the Deeper Life Bible Church. This Afd appears to be a bad faith Afd, as the nomination rationale discredits reliables sources such as BBC News, Vanguard, The Daily Herald, Daily Champion and belittles them as "no credible references". I would therefore like to ask Administrators to close this apparent frivolous bad faith Afd. Thank you. Amsaim (talk) 18:34, 9 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment - Definitely not a "bad faith AFD" — this is a poorly footnoted and rather promotional piece. Notability is on the borderline, I have no firm opinion one way or the other here. But it's definitely not a Speedy situation... Carrite (talk) 19:16, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep. Has received coverage in multiple independent sources. Not your ordinary church. StAnselm (talk) 02:25, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep for this incomprehensible nom. References from multiple reliable publishers like University Press of America are right there in the article. -- 202.124.89.138 (talk) 08:38, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep -- While this is not an article of the ideal quality the subject is clearly notable. It appears to be more like a denomination than a church.  The quality of the citations, some of which look like academic works also sets this apart from the typical church.  CErtainly not "obscure and wiwth no credible referneces"!
