234:- Some explanation is called for... This is an umbrella organization, designed to coordinate discussions between several European Masonic bodies on items of mutual interest. But it is not a supervisory body or something that has any real binding influence on Freemasonry in the various jurisdictions that belong to it. It is sort of like having a regularly scheduled conference of City Mayors, who might meet to discuss issues such as how they all deal with wellfare reform and crime. It is one of several such organizations in European Freemasonry that are constantly forming, breaking apart, and reforming. What makes this particular one more notable than the others is who is a member. This group has the participation of a few of the largest and most influential of the miriad Masonic Jurisdictions in Europe (note... these particular Jurisdictions are all considered "irregular" splinter groups by the vast majority of Masonry world wide, which is why we have the "splinter of splinter" issue). Of particular noteworthiness is the Grand Orient de France (the largest of three Masonic Grand Bodies in that country). The question is whether having a few noteworthy members equates to the organization itself being notable, I think it does... just. However, I
446:- per Blueboar and others above. Also, regretably, being a "splinter group of a splinter group" is factually irrelevant to this, or any, such discussion. The same term could be used to describe most of the religious organizations on the planet, of which several thousand have extant articles, and many others could have.

Third, I have difficulty with saying that Bessel and Pietre Stones establish notability, even if you stretch the idea of "independent" to include them. Bessel is essentially just collecting documents issued by SIMPA and similar orgs; he does not discuss them or comment on them in any detail... and

The Pietre Stones article is an overview of the regularity issue... ie a Mason from Group A explaining the history behind why Masons from Group B are not considered "regular". Neither goes into enough detail to tell us what make SIMPA
