[edit] King County Journal

King County Journal (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

A former newspaper. No claim of notability, a few have suggested a merge to King County. I'm just nomming it here as it is the only page in Category:Articles with topics of unclear notability from January 2007 without a deletion tab on it. With this gone, that category can be deleted, and progress on the notability project will have been made Montchav 13:22, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment. Keeping the article would be just as helpful in making progress as deleting it. Phil Bridger 13:19, 16 November 2007 (UTC)


  • This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 18:47, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep — It was this region's fifth largest newspaper, and a number of us have mourned its passing. It is sufficiently notable to stand by itself and expand. — RJH (talk) 22:09, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
    • I've added more information and references to this article. I believe it now satisfies the template issues that were listed at the top of the page, so I took the liberty of removing them. — RJH (talk) 23:04, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep If it were once notable, it would remain so after it ceased. First time I've heard an article being nominated for deletion in order to clear up a category in a Wikiproject. Cart before horse, I'd say. DGG (talk) 02:12, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - it looks okay to me. Deb 12:52, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep -- this was a notable local paper and shouldn't be merged to King County in any case. --Lukobe (talk) 01:01, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - Notable. Kingturtle (talk) 15:19, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
