Talk:Difang jiaohui

This redirect was nominated at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion on 24 January 2022. The result of the discussion was keep.

Should this foreign language redirect exist?

The group of churches referred to by this redirect (Local churches (affiliation)) do not claim such a name of "Difang jiaohui"; in fact they do not claim any name for their churches. Perhaps others outside of their membership may refer to them as such in the Chinese language, but it's largely just a translation. While the group has significant history in China, now the group is international and is not characterized by Chinese membership or by the use of the Chinese language. None of the examples in WP:RLOTE apply here. I think this redirect should either be removed from the English Wikipedia, or changed to point to an article in the Chinese Wikipedia, perhaps 地方召會運動 --JarOfGems (talk) 03:46, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't seen this name used anywhere in the sources for Local churches (affiliation), which are all in English. Moreover, the article introduction, the primary sources, and several of the secondary, make the point that this group has no official name. I cannot see any utility in this redirect. -Abishai 300 (talk) 22:08, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
