100+ year old church with no evidence of notability and ghits are limited to directory type listings. Per WP: CORP, local orgs need RS coverage, this one doesn't have any. TRAVELLINGCARIMy storyTell me yours 21:24, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete Hardly any notability to speak of. Almost G11-able in my book. Blueboy96 22:15, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Deleteor cite sources I would say delete, but I'm fine with keeping it as long as you cite your sources. Signed, Nothing444 23:21, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep or delete for a different reason Its real, I added an external link. The only thing I would worry about is Notability. Signed, Nothing444 23:24, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment No question it exists, but there's no evidence it's notable. The church's own website does not establish notability per WP:RS, WP:N TRAVELLINGCARIMy storyTell me yours 03:44, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:ORG. Most individual churches are non-notable. The article's only sources are the church's own web site and one of its publications. A Google search indicates that significant coverage of this church in independent reliable sources is hard to find. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 07:19, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete No notability. Not even any evidence of being a historic structure, which could make this notable. Nyttend (talk) 19:46, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep I have cited all the works I have quoted, other then that, I'm just going off what I know about the church. The church has done a lot of great work in peoples lives. While the building itself is not too old, the original building still stands, about two blocks away, and is now owned by the salvation army. If someone doesn't want a specific church article, let me know, and maybe I will right a big article with other churches, including this church.(I will just copy paste this article, into the big article, and right up about some other baptist churches in cambridge.)The article also has notability. Go to the official website. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paul the dud (talk • contribs)
  • Comment Currently checking with city to see if original building is historic site-Paul the dud
  • Delete - I regret that it is necessary to delete churches so regularly, but few are truely notable. See current guidelines on this. Peterkingiron (talk) 00:44, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
