Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church (Lake Worth)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This article violates WP:NOT. The current text is unrelated to the article subject. The church has no scandal or controversy in the news and the page is being used for an unencyclopedic purpose - spam? - that does not serve Wikipedia but uses it in an uncharitable and irresponsible way. Mark Foley was not abused at the church. Charles Whitman, whose killing spree is attributed to a brain tumor, was not abused and the news articles about his killing spree do not mention what church he attended as a boy. Each man happened to have once attended the church. The entire church article consists of only this unrelated information and no other information can be found on the web to expand the page. If something is not in the news it is not notable. NancyHeise (talk) 04:33, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, obvious WP:COATRACK article. --Dhartung | Talk 04:41, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, the church is a notable Lake Worth structure commonly sold on postcards, and was mentioned in news articles about both Whitman and Foley. While it is unfortunate there are not yet more details on the church in the article, that doesn't mean the article itself should be deleted. It means we should try to find more details on the church.

 * Delete COATRACK, POV and sections irrelevant to the article (NOTNEWS). Rest is just a stub. Student7 (talk) 12:03, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment, I also fail to understand how an AFD can begin "This article violates WP:NOT..." and end with "If something is not in the news it is not notable..." Sherurcij (Speaker for the Dead) 19:44, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete. As stated above, COATRACK and POV problems. There is nothing interesting said about the church itself. The article is obviously intended to provide a venue for discussing the Whitman and Foley cases. Come back when there is something notable about the church itself that is supported by reliable published sources. -- Donald Albury 03:47, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete not notable. KnightLago (talk) 19:56, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
