St. Elie and St. Gregory the Illuminator Armenian Catholic Cathedral

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The cathedral is the seat of a Patriarchate which consists entirely of only that Patriarchate. In other words, it is the seat of itself. Therefore, it has no independent notability. First three pages of GHits are self-referential, photos only, wikis, or do not meet RS. Being a cathedral does not automatically create notability, but merely ascertains existence.

 * Keep. Nomination makes no sense: the relevant Patriarchate covers a wide swath of territory. As the Armenian Catholic cathedral in Beirut, this is extremely notable, and widely covered in reliable book sources. The name of the cathedral is Anglicised in different forms, e.g. "Cathedral of St. Gregory and St. Elias," "Armenian Catholic cathedral of Beirut," etc. -- 202.124.75.250 (talk) 01:51, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Have you actually seen the size of this church? Clearly notable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 01:19, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep asthe site of a major ecclesiastical organization, and widely covered. A building and an organization are not the same thin, though they may have a connection to each other.  DGG ( talk ) 06:59, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
