 * Comment: Article is about an order of nuns. The Italian language version is more substantive but also lacking in references. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 15:14, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, seems notable enough within the context of Italian history and the House of Gonzaga (in that it was founded by three members of that family and its charter was written by a fourth, in response to the killing of a fifth). The Italian article has citations from three books, and I was able to find two more English-language ones discussing the order at reasonable length. I used one to expand and add citations to the page. The other, which provided substantially similar information to the one I used, is "Bradshaw's Illustrated Hand-Book to Italy" by George Bradshaw, published in London in 1865 by W.J. Adams. In any event, I'd think that those five books are enough to demonstrate that the article meets WP:GNG. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 15:33, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - long-standing order mentioned in at least five books as shown above and in Italian article. Lady  of  Shalott  16:09, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - I think we can just about presume all RC orders are notable - especially 400 year old ones. StAnselm (talk) 20:51, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Sources here and at it.wikipedia are convincing. Alessandra Napolitano (talk) 18:20, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Obviously the kind of historically significant subject that belongs in an encyclopedia. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 05:15, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
