The result was Merge to Evangelical Lutheran Synod. Note that merge is a form of Keep, as the article history remains, behind a redirect. note also that a merge result is not binding on future editors, although it is usual to seek some form of consensus before undoing a merge that resulted from an AfD.

This article violates WP:NPOV in the extreme; is filled with unencyclopedic religious language and appeals; makes claims that cannot be substantiated (yet alone cited); and is more of an essay than an article. I think it is unsalvagable, and more importantly, in my opinion the subject is not sufficiently noteworthy to merit an encyclopedia entry. It might be folded into the article about its parent organization. RandomHumanoid( ⇒) 01:52, 15 June 2007 (UTC) reply
I had just written a response but it has been lost due to "edit conflict." I strongly object to removing the article.--RikEischen 02:24, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Keep Normally I'm not too big on deleting articles that are only a few days old. 1450 hits on Google suggest that there is potentially enough there to build a worthwhile article. While it does need a complete rewrite, I prefer to leave the article as is and re-examine the deletion issue a few months down the road after it's had time to develop.
