Minor catholic organization serving the Lithuanian military, we currently have no in-depth independent coverage in reliable sources and I have been unable to find any online. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 06:26, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, it is not an organization but an "administrative" subdivision of the Catholic church. The number of interwiki links is a very good indication that the subject is indeed notable. Renata (talk) 18:17, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Renata3: those links appear to only be due to its inclusion in navboxes, they aren’t actual links from the bodies of those articles. Also a stand alone administrative subdivision is an organization, there is no independence inherent in the definition. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 18:51, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mean "what links here" but 9 articles in other language Wikipedias. Renata (talk) 18:58, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You mean the cut and pasted version of this article which use the same self-published or non-independent sources? If you can pull good coverage from those articles it would save us a lot of time. Note that the ubiquitously used Catholic-Hierarchy.org is a non-reliable self published source. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 19:00, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete there are no reliable sources giving in depth coverage of this organization. The fact that it is a part of the Catholic Church does not mean it itself is notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:42, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Updated and expanded with plenty of references. Horse Eye's Back and John Pack Lambert, please consider withdrawing your !votes. Renata (talk) 02:10, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Renata3! You’ve done an absolutely fabulous job of cobbling together sources in multiple languages to get it just over the WP:GNG bar! That is truly some impressive work and I no longer see a notability objection here. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 16:20, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. A branch of a national military and effectively a diocese of a major religious denomination. These are both generally considered to be notable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:43, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as per WP:HEY because since nomination the article has been significantly improved using reliable sources coverage that shows a pass of WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 00:04, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
