Notability has not been established. While a Presiding Bishop would presumably be notable, an Assistant is not necessarily so. St Anselm (talk) 02:52, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: What do you mean by "notability has not been established"? We have many badly written articles on subjects that are notable. We can't go just on the article by itself, especially one that is almost 8 years old when wikipedia was a Wild West. Performing my own search, I find minor mentions of the guy in church appointment type references in Dallas area newspapers, but nothing significant. Thus deletion is probably appropriate.--Milowent • ^talkblp-r 03:55, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Agreed, notability has not been established, and as I have tried and failed to find any sources that would do so, this should probably go.--Korruski^Talk 12:16, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. No evidence of notability. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:11, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep -- I suspect that the Church of God in Christ is a major denomination. If so, an assistant presiding bishop is probably notable. However, it is always difficult to judge a stub. I would be happier if the title had his full names. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:54, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I don't believe there is any automatic notability for an assistant bishop, and there is nothing at Google News to support notability of this individual. --MelanieN (talk) 19:02, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I don't believe there is inherent notability in this position, and it lacks other evidence indicating notability. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 21:38, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
