Rising Sun Lodge 29

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Consensus has been that individual Masonic lodges are not notable. The buildings they are in can be notable,and in this case it is -- and it already has an article, Cotaco Opera House. FWIW, the article was accepted at AfC DGG ( talk ) 19:07, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - the only WP:IRS that address the organization in detail are the two Decatur Daily articles, which aren't enough to pass WP:NCORP notability guidelines. As pointed out by DGG, most of this article is about the buildings, or is uncited. It would definitely be good to mention the Lodge in the existing article about Cotaco Opera House.

 * Weak keep Went through the 17 references.   Two have the substantive coverage of the type that wp:notability requires. North8000 (talk) 22:33, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - While consensus can change, I do agree with Sionk's rationale. Unless more significant coverage can be found than the two local newspaper articles, it fails notability. A quick internet search did not reveal any potential new sources to me. Altairisfar (talk) 05:37, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
