Quorn Baptist Church

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Contested PROD with no reason provided. Fails WP:NCHURCH; nothing more than routine database listings and primary sources available; no indication that either the building (per WP:NBUILD) or organisation (per WP:NORG) are notable or historically significant. It is not a listed building and I have searched here and here just to be sure. Spiderone 10:23, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Withdraw - It looks like the Grade II listing is here as well, no idea how I missed that when I read the article from start to finish. Apologies for the wasted time with this one. Spiderone  19:02, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep Why do people keep trying to delete churches in Leicestershire?  Anyway, the church is historic, being about 250 years old, and it only took seconds to find an extensive history. Andrew🐉(talk) 12:18, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Whilst the coverage is obviously extensive, my main issue is that it is written entirely by someone who works at the church, so it's likely to be considered as a primary source or at least non-independent Spiderone  12:35, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
 * No, that's not a primary source. The history lists its primary and secondary sources which include: History of the Baptists in Loughborough 1756–1846; History of the English General Baptists; General Baptist Repository volume 3; &c.  There's more to be found on Google Scholar – The Origins of the New Connexion of General Baptists in Leicestershire; Early Baptists in Leicestershire and Rutland; &c.  My !vote stands.

 * Keep. Actually, it is a listed building, so clearly meets WP:GEOFEAT. It was actually listed on both the sites you searched as the General Baptist Chapel! The Historic England listing very often does not match the common name. -- Necrothesp (talk) 17:20, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Good point. And note that there are actually two listings as, across the road is an even older building: the original Baptist meeting house before the present Chapel.
