398:. until this community has a building, or a large organizational structure, AND more references about it separate from it being Mr. Lerner's project, I dont think it needs an article. all this info can easily fit into his bio. (and just in case anyone is concerned about bias, i am an admirer of Lerner, and have attended a service there-one of the very progressive jewish groups that you dont have to be jewish to appreciate or attend. its not a big group, at least as of that night.)
637:- there seems to be a clear consensus that the content should be kept in some form so the question is where best to locate it. There is enough in the article for its own page and this seems the best solution, particularly since the synagogue is no longer dependent on Lerner. Having said that, compliance with

Hi
Thargor: I appreciate what is eluding you, in this case, as often happens in synagogue-rabbi affairs, an actual synagogue happens to be "founded" by a famous person or rabbi and then the two phenomena (synagogue and rabbi) branch out yet remain connected. Thus, you will see that the majority of

occasional exceptions may apply.". The objective of notability standards is to keep the obviously unimportant off the project. This organisation has enough significance for an article so, if required, it can be one of the "occasional exceptions".

but that is not what you are proposing, and even so, because of the well-known popularity of this unconventional synagogue in the media since its founding in 1996, it's an argument for keeping this article.
681:
The consensus is that "the content should be kept in some form". That includes a merge which you yourself proposed. Only the nominator has proposed deletion - everyone else has suggested keep or merge.

Actually there is no such consensus. Although there is a numerical majority in favor of "keep", not one of the "keep" !voters provided any actual evidence to support their assertions of notability. Per
