- Delete; I agree with Tony. Some local renown is evidenced by the local coverage, but that doesn't change the fact that this is not a notable person by our standards--and the article wholly inappropriate. Drmies (talk) 16:59, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

- Delete The main claim in the article involves misusing the term Catholic to try to make Mathias actually seem prominent. Other claims, like being the first Eagle Scout in a village of almost 300 people, actually I still find hard to believe applied to someone in the 1970s. Extraordinary claims call for extraoredinary sources, and we should not be parroting self-promotional rubbish. I am still trying to figure out how the head of a Church with 200-300 people is at all prominent, and the claim that someone who heads a Church with that number was a key figure in bringing a deliberately non-self-defining religious tradition to an area with 3 million or more people ascentral Texas is I just find beyond a believable claim. Wikipedia is not news, and nothing about Mathias raises to the level of news.John Pack Lambert (talk) 22:05, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
