There is no coverage to establish he meets WP:BIO or WP:GNG. This is currently an unref blp. From my understanding bishop in the Moravian Church is not the equivalent title of bishop in i.e. Catholic Church, though I'm happy to be corrected if I'm wrong.

  • Delete This person is one of six bishops within a province of 15,000 members. That is never going to really be enough to establish notability, many Catholic bishop's lead dioceses with over 1 million members. The other key is having independent 3rd party sourcing which is lacking here. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 20:00, 6 July 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete: subject fails WP:GNG have searched for sources that could be used to build its notability, unfortunately nothing came up. Maco Paco ( talk) 6:25,18 July 2020 (UTC)
  • Delete -- I expected to be voting to keep, but for the statistical reasons given by JPL - 6 bishops for a province with 55 congregations and 15,000 members according to Moravian Church, I cannot accept that he is notable. I had expected they would be a larger denomination. Possibly redirect to that article, but that does noyt list the bishops. Peterkingiron ( talk) 16:53, 19 July 2020 (UTC) reply
