Holy Virgin Protection skete had such name only since 2015. Before that, it was a parish church. In 2007, the property of the parish became the object of legal proceedings. This was written in the media, including
The Wall Street Journal[1],
The Moscow Times[2],
Kommersant[3], Novoye Russkoye Slovo

Delete I wasn't able to find any other source other than it's own website. Respectfully I do acknowledge the importance of religious communities, I do not think this passes

Until the fall of 2015, this skit was an ordinary parish church. ~

These references do not have the article's subject as their focus. Being mentioned in passing does not fulfill

I feel the references have the "Sviato-Pokrovskiy Russian Orthodox Church" as the main focus... so the article's subject would have to be changed in addition to the title. I do agree that the "skete"/monastery aspect itself is not notable, but the church itself is. =

Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.
Keep - rename, as per
Timtempleton's [unsigned] comment above. See
this archive.is copy to avoid subscription/paywall for WSJ post. I feel the three articles should absolutely be referenced, the photo captioned, and a little cleanup. The three references establish an interesting notability as a Cold War-era church with an interesting story to be told. =

Comment - As per
WP:SUSTAINED, there was some limited coverage of this establishment for a very brief period during 2007. Before and since: nada.
