Keep As annoying as it is to have multiple redundant organizations, this article is useful in that they publish "The Historiographer". In the case of "The Historiographer", having this article allows readers to more easily determine the source of the journal (in articles such as Henry Benjamin Whipple), and to distinguish it from Historiographer Royal. This organization is a cited publisher on several EC-USA pages: All Saints Episcopal Church, Waveland (Jensen Beach, Florida) and Christ Episcopal Church (Monticello, Florida).--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 03:30, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep -- It is useful to have articles on learned societies, though it is difficult to find external reliable sources on them. This particularly applies when they publish an academic journal. In this case, The Historiographer is only described as a newsletter, which is why I only say weak keep. Nevertheless, it is worth having an article on the denominational history society of a major denomination. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:42, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as there are reliable book sources and it does have a scholarly significance in preserving church history Atlantic306 (talk) 20:43, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
