Deletion of Royal Confraternity of Sao Teotonio (2nd nomination)

Comment: WP:ORG doesn't seem to concern itself with the nature of an order being self-styled or not.  The group is comprised of a number of notable persons including the exiled King of Rwanda and several former state governors.  This bishop in São Tomé not recognizing the group is a strawman arguement.  No where on the groups website do they claim to support him with financial gifts.  See  which specifically addresses articles failing to meet notability standards but that otherwise would or could.  In short  deletion is a last resort.  An expert tag should be put on this page and a request made on the talk page prior to moving for deletion.  Seems irrational to rush for deletion as this has not been attempted

Additionally, it has been disavowed by the Roman Catholic Diocese of São Tomé and Príncipehttp://www.ordenskreuz.com/images/OFFICIAL_TRANSLATION.pdf (purportedly one of its main beneficiaries, whose former bishop is one of its 'Spiritual Protectors

Comment: Fails  I have discovered new information (I didn't know about the earlier AfD). One of the basic sources was ''Catalogo De Ordenes Extranjeras En Espana'', "by Jose Maria de Montells y Galan and Alfredo Escudero y Diaz Madronero, 2007, published by the Academia De Genealogia, Nobleza Y Armas Alfonso XIII en colaboracion con la Sociedad Heráldica Española, Madrid, Kingdom of Spain". It turns out that the Sociedad Heraldica Espanola has no official standing and is a private venture (and part of a network of similar private ventures).  seehttp://www.phoneynobletitles.com/id45.htm andhttp://www.maineworldnewsservice.com/caltrap/chivalri.htm. The Spanish Heraldry Society was founded in the 1980s-"La Orden se reúne anualmente en el Alcázar de Segovia, España, lugar donde habitualmente se realizan los solemnes actos de investidura de nuevos miembros.   Para su ingreso no se exige prueba de nobleza, aunque la condición de noble puede acriditarse por el pretendiente que la poese, pero sí y de forma muy estricta, se precisa ser persona honobrable y distinguida con méritos suficientes, a juicio de los órganos rectores del orden para integrarse al elenco de la misma. The Order meets annually at the Alcazar de Segovia, Spain, where they usually performed the solemn act of investiture of new members. Your admission does not require proof of nobility, although the condition can acriditarse by the noble suitor that poetry but in a very strict and is honobrable person and needs to be distinguished with sufficient merit, in the opinion of the governing bodies of the order to join the cast of the same" from herehttp://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=es&u=http://www.listin.com.do/app/article.aspx%3Fid%3D39469&ei=uffESd7VGqTJjAeMn-2UCw&sa=X&oi=translate&resnum=3&ct=result&prev=/search%3Fq%3D%2522%2Bla%2BSociedad%2BHer%25C3%25A1ldica%2BEspa%25C3%25B1ola.%2522%2B-Montells%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Doff%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-GB:official%26hs%3DZhh%26sa%3DG%26num%3D100%26newwindow%3D1
