| This is a clear A1 speedy delete candidate. I will leave this talk page, but I will delete the article. A predicate nominative is a ''fact'' and not an article.

- Article definitely lacks context? What is Archdiocese? Where (or what) is Nueva Segovia? Cant I even read the first line without drifting off to a hunting mission? --soum 17:47, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
