University Baptist Church (Waco, Texas)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Prod deleted because founder is supposedly a famous musician (Personally, if it wasn't for wiki, I never would have heard of him). But that aside, nothing in the article indicates that this is anything other than a local church providing services every other church in the world does. If it did anything notable, such as host a nationwide show where the services were broadcasted, I am sure someone would have said so by now. Postcard Cathy 14:46, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete No notability asserted at all. Blueboy96 16:16, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete A7. No assertion of notability. -- Charlene 16:19, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, notability is not transferable; not everything a famous person does is notable. --Dhartung | Talk 16:31, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete for the above reasons. At best, this should be a mention in an article about the founder. --Fabrictramp 16:47, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I just checked Fabric and it is listed in the founder's article.  In fact, more is listed there than in this article!  172.134.46.45 07:01, 16 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - Although the founder is notable, the church is not, based on what's in the article. - Philippe | Talk 19:21, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete as non-notable. Nothing special, there 1,000's of such Baptist churches across the Bible Belt. Possible mention as per Fabrictramp. Bearian 19:41, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * delete for lack of content, not for non-notability. While our article fails to show it, an internationally noted tragedy affecting the then current pastor who is notable himself happened at the church. That incident belongs first and foremost in our article on the  pastor.  However, with two articles that have reason to link here, we may well want an article on the church itself.  However, this is a sub-stub, not the article we would want at the title.  I don't think it would hurt anything for this to be deleted due to lack of content, rather than lack of notability, leaving redlinks in place.  Nice to know there are Baptist churches in Waco that aren't splits from First Baptist though.  GRBerry 19:21, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
