A notability tag has been on this article for almost 2 months but I see nothing added to the article that establishes notability. The tag was removed but I replaced it as I disagree with the argument that the articles in the local newspaper and the
Biblical Recorder website are sufficient to establish notability, and further discussion on the talk page and my searches haven't turned up anything more. I note that the article's creator states that the Biblical Recorder is an independent source but I don't believe that the technical independence that he mentions makes it independent in a way that meets our criteria for independence of sources to to establish reliability. I'll add that I can't find the criteria mentioned by another editor at the talk page who writes "the the church seems to meet the Wikipedia criteria of local notability as shown by an independent RS".

@ Dougweller, the notability tag has only been up for a few days (4 I believe). It was up for a very short time earlier and was taken down because the organization seems to meet the standard of having secondary sources published about it.
As for deletion: KEEP:

I don't know that it is the case that the Caswell Messenger is owned by the same company as the Danville Register & Bee. Can you prove it? And how is it relevant since the two papers have different editorial staff and are thus two distinct publications. If a two publications (like Newsweek and the Washington Post) are both owned by the same company, are they then considered only one source? I doubt it.
MAJOR PROBLEM:

Here's the criteria for notability copied directly from the wikipedia guidelines:
As for 1. check; 2. check: at least three secondary sources covering the subject; 3. check: multiple secondary sources; 4. check: while a church brochure is cited, the other sources are independent; 5. this is a matter of judgment. Yeoberry ( talk) 16:47, 20 March 2013 (UTC) reply
