Ma-Tsu Temple (San Francisco, California)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A Google search returns many results but these are superficial mentions such as in tourism guides, or the temple's own website. I found one book, "Chinese Religions in Contemporary Societies" that has a chapter on the establishment of this temple. This falls short of multiple, substantial references though, so I am nominating on the grounds of notability. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 14:38, 6 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep. A full chapter in an academic RS plus multiple tourist guides establishing its status as a notable sight should actually already suffice, but I also just found another academic book with substantial coverage (and expanded the article based on it).

 * Thanks for this, I don't get to vote as it was my nomination, but given the additional solid reference you've added (thank you) I would happily withdraw the AfD. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 09:29, 7 May 2017 (UTC)
