The result was Redirect. However, there have been several different redirect targets suggested, so I'm going to leave the choice of where to redirect up to those participating.

There are little reason to have pages for the individual parishes of Denmark. I am working my way through the municipality pages, and I am adding a section with stats about the parishes in each municipality (Examples:
Slagelse and
Nyborg), and that should cover the information needed for that parish. Of course, very important parishes could get their own page, but St. Michael's parish isn't important enough for that, in my opinion. The alternative is to add pages for all parishes in Denmark, which I don't think is a job anyone wants to take on, and they're also that's not notable enough for the English Wikipedia. I suggest all parish pages be merged with the municipality page for whatever municipality they're in.

RedirectParish (Denmark) says that these correspond to churches and have minimal legal authority. In that case there's no reason for individual articles and the list you've made in the municipality articles is terrific. Even considering the former role, the lack of content beyond basic statistics that can be made tabular does not warrant an article. Thank you!

Redirect. Note: This is a church parish, not a government or civil subdivision.

Redirect to
List of churches in Slagelse Municipality, where it is discussed in more detail. This appears to solely be an ecclesiastical structure, as opposed to the parishes of Louisiana, which are legal structures. GEOLAND does no apply to ecclesiastical divisions.

Comment A parish in Denmark did indeed use to be low-level municipalities (parish municipality, sognekommuner), but these were often different from today's parishes. Today's parishes (like the one I've marked afd) are entirely ecclesiastical and hold no local governing powers save for church-related affairs. GEOLAND might apply to the former parish municipalities, but as I see it not to today's parishes.

Possibly merge to
Slagelse or redirect. If (as I think) this is a local church it is NN.
