Per WP:GEOFEAT, buildings need to be cultural/national heritage sites or be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance, but they require significant coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability. Other than being built in 1674, the article makes no claim of notability. It makes no claim that it is a cultural heritage site, a national heritage site, or a tourist attraction. I also have been unable to find verifiable, reliable, third-party sources that state the church's notability (the sources on the page all have issues). I will admit that I cannot read Finnish, but the other language versions of these articles are equally as short. In my opinion, the notability of the building is not established, and thus deletion is appropriate. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:33, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. The building is registered in the Kultuurimälestiste riiklik register (National Register of Cultural Monuments), Estonia's counterpart of the National Register of Historic Places in the United States. I think that being on such a national register is enough to prove notability. "23077 Taagepera kirik". National Register of Cultural Monuments. I have added information about the listing to the article and started an infobox. The references are in Estonian, which Google Translate can handle.

• Keep per Eastmain. --Pelmeen10 (talk) 11:55, 16 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. A church from the 17th century ought to be able to pass WP:GNG, and Eastmain's hard work shows that this does. Bradv 13:37, 16 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
