Soldier's Covenant

There's no indication that the Salvation Army's articles of faith are notable. Coverage in independent sources is scarce and mostly amounts to "They exist, are called 'Soldier's Covenant' and sum up the Salvation Army's doctrines". That's the best I could find via Google Books, Google Scholar is even less helpful. The article cites no independent sources whatsoever. Huon (talk) 14:37, 14 April 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Article needs a lot of work, but I am seeing some discussion in academic sources. Note that this document was known as the "Articles of War" until 2010, and so nearly all scholarship will refer to that name. I'll try to provide a cleanup and sourcing pass, but probably can't get to it till early in the week. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 16:03, 14 April 2018 (UTC)

- Comment - would you mind sharing what those sources are (and how you found them)? I found nothing of that sort. An appendix giving the Soldier's Covenant is hardly discussion. Huon (talk) 18:27, 14 April 2018 (UTC)
- Merge into existing article soldier(of the Salvation Army) I've already quoted from the 2018 Salvation Army year book why the Soldiers Covenant is notable, but let me repeat for those unfamiliar with my previous definition:
- Soldiers Covenant: The statement of beliefs and promises which every intending soldier is required to sign before enrolment. Previously called Articles of War source: page 20, Salvation Army year book 2018 ISBN978-1-911149-40-8(paperback) and 978-1-911149-41-5(e-book)
