Vineyard Churches UK and Ireland

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Nothing about the UK organisation that not be covered easily within Association of Vineyard Churches. Local news stories about individual churches do not really show notability for a group in the UK - the group is not mentioned in them. Disputed prod. noq (talk) 00:10, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, notable grouping in the UK (speaking as a person who has not attended any of their meetings). The academic reference work cited indicates notability and contains further material that could be added. I have asked an editor with access to other reliable printed sources to contribute from those. - Fayenatic (talk) 07:54, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment Is it about the UK organisation or about a single Church - the other independent references are local news stories about individual churches. I am not seeing anything about the UK organisation as a whole. noq (talk) 10:17, 23 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep, the UK British New Church scene is better understand separately from the US. There are over 100 churches in the UK. I suggest using Chapter 12 of: William K Kay Apostolic Networks in Britain: New Ways of Being Church (Milton Keynes: Paternoster, 2007) which covers the UK Vineyard separately.

 * Keep - Notable as there are 100 churches. No one seems to be disputing the basic fact. JASpencer (talk) 20:39, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - notable group; sources exist. -- 202.124.74.92 (talk) 22:39, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - As stated, there are over 100 churches and it has now been academically referenced. Granted, it needs improvement; that seems no reason to delete. ItsZippy (talk) 16:58, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, worth splitting off this much referenced content about an international organization's history and activities in one area of the world off to its own article. Gurt Posh (talk) 09:26, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
