[edit] Temple Beth Or
No indication of this temple's prominince is given. Google shows there are about 16,000 synagogues with this exact same name. — Frecklefoot | Talk 16:22, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete for reason above. — Frecklefoot | Talk 16:25, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
- Do not delete. What must I edit in order to keep it? Should I give the website? Tamajared 16:35, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
- Expanding is always a good idea (and websites for subjects which have them is always recommended), but I doubt you could expand it enough to prove that the temple is notable enough to deserve an entry in the 'pedia. There are millions of churches/temples/mospques around the world—we're not going to create articles for every one of them. If you can include information on why this one temple is very notable (e.g. First temple to be included in the Guinness Book of World Records, First temple to be completely constructed by blind masonists, etc.), it is less likely to be deleted. Otherwise, it's just another local temple that people can find by surfing the 'net. — Frecklefoot | Talk 16:54, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
- I see your point. I would not have added this article if I hadn't seen others that ALSO lack information, such as Temple Beth Am.
- Go ahead and nominate that one for deletion. I just happened to come across yours. :-S — Frecklefoot | Talk 17:08, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

- Delete parishcruft (I know that Judiasm doesn't have parishes, but individual temples and parish churches are generally nn). Carlossuarez46 18:14, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete -- few synagogues qualify as any more notable than individual churches. Haikupoet 00:48, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Most individual religious congregations are non-notable. --Metropolitan90 02:14, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
