Unsourced for almost 10 years, clearly not notable. The page is but a list article version of a category from WPpl, by the author's own admission here and here (WP:CIRCULAR, WP:SPS). I recommend deletion. Veverve (talk) 16:10, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

- Redirect to Revindication of Eastern Orthodox churches in the Second Polish Republic and mention it on that article's talk page. I concur that currently GNG and V are not met, but the list seems encyclopedic in theory, and references might be found. While some information could indeed be preserved by a category, I don't think we have one at the momement anyway? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:37, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

- Redirect is the right choice. The article does contain sole important information, but this could be perfectly well covered by Revindication of Eastern Orthodox churches in the Second Polish Republic. As it stands the title is unsatisfactory, because it makes no reference to Poland. This may be parochial of me, but I think that for most people The Second Republic (unqualified) means The French Second Republic. That's also what DuckDuckGo thinks.

- @Piotrus and Athel cb: WP:NCLIST: "List of X" redirects should target... a list of the X they advertise. Veverve (talk) 11:39, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Veverve: You are right. I'd like to propose a merge, but the content is unreferenced, sadly. However, Revindication of Eastern Orthodox churches in the Second Polish Republic can be argued to contain such a list in prose, since it does mention a number of churches, so I think WP:SOFTDELETE will be ok, until such a time someone restores some content to the list proper with references. Perhaps the creator of this list will be motivated to rescue it with sources, making some of our worries moot? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:44, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

- Possibly delete -- The article is not totally unsourced as it apparently reproduces a category in the Polish WP. This is a source, though not necessarily RS, particularly as it may be derived from an old version of the Polish WP. None of these destroyed churches has its own article, which implies that the English WP considers them all NN. I have grave doubts as to whether a list of destroyed churches is notable, hence delete.
