Why is this article subject to deletion?[edit]

The other buddhist temple in Massachusetts , Wat Nawamintararachutis, has a article that is about this length, but it is not subject to deletion! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.199.33.88 (talk) 12:56, 25 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As the previous poster noted, there are only two Theravadin temples in the Boston area. The Thai tradition faithfully maintains the oldest recorded teachings of the Buddha. I visited the temple one Sunday and found that it is a vibrant active community with a well-attended Sunday School program. I would like to see a rationale for deleting this article. Has the proponent for deletion ever visited the temple? -- WillWare (talk) 14:06, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
