Carmelite Sisters of the Aged and Infirm[edit]

This is a non-notable organization (fails the proposed WP:ORG. Out of 41 unique search hits [1], I see nothing that may bolster notability to encyclopedic levels. Deprodded with the comment "The community will be happy to decide whether they're notable" and without any changes to the article. Erechtheus 06:54, 21 September 2006 (UTC) In light of the outstanding job done adding references not apparent via Google, I withdraw the nomination. Erechtheus 19:54, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. This is an order of Roman Catholic sisters that operates several homes for the aged. The article is a stub and should be expanded, but the group is notable both as a religious order and as a health care organization. --TruthbringerToronto (talk • contribs • page moves • block user • block log) 07:30, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Per TruthbringerToronto. Religious orders are usually notable, particularly if they've been around for 80-some years. Irongargoyle 13:29, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep. Existing or historical Roman Catholic religious orders are notable per se, and without regard to their Google presence. - Smerdis of Tlön 14:03, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. What exactly is it that makes a religious order notable per se? Also note that this AfD does not seek to delete Carmelites, which would appear to be the article about the order. It seems that this is some suborder unless I just don't understand the organization right.Erechtheus 15:22, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
KeepA religious order in operation since 1929, honored by Cardinals and Governors, with 29 or so homes in the U.S. and Europe, founded by a Sister proposed for beatification, whose case is working its way through the procedures of the Vatican, seems pretty notable.Edison 16:31, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Looks notable enough with references. Plus, it is part of the listing on Roman Catholic religious order article. JungleCat talk/contrib 18:17, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
