Oppose - Quite a notable person especially in relation to his work with the homeless. Definitively meets GNG. Snappy (talk) 20:45, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
 * That alone does not confer sufficient notability per se. Quis separabit?  23:25, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, it does indeed. Check for reliable sources, loads out there. Snappy (talk) 17:41, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Google search by name (see ) brought up one link to the official Trust website and to one RTE article referencing Father McVerry himself. registered 18,600 hits, a relatively low number, with many fewer actually deriving from reliable sources. In any event, as I indicated above in the rationale, I believe that a merger of the Wikipedia article on Father McVerry (which I will have to fix up and can expand but won't do anything until this AFD is resolved/closed) and the Wikipedia article about the Trust, which is basically a stub, would be good.

 * Keep. Notable person. Numerous sources meet general notability guideline.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 23:08, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
