[edit] Southern Maine Guerilla Drive-in
Nonnotable local movie event; contested speedy. NawlinWiki 14:53, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
- I posted my defense on the discussion page. Essentially, I don't believe that it is non-notable. It's a significant local event that's the first of its kind in its area, and it is known about nation-wide for being so. Alex Peppe 22:54, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete With respect to the creator, this is a question of articles needed for an encyclopedia. WP:NOT for things we each have passion about, or we "know" are important locally. There are various accepted objective criteria for events, business and organisations, etc. None of these seem to fit. But at the core, notability is about multiple non trivial independent sources. Please help with data. I can only find advertising and related material. What is the evidence this is known nation-wide? If there were even a few full page articles (not ads or lists) in a few regional newspapers or similar on this event or organisation, please provide the references.Obina 23:46, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete There are no full page articles regarding the Southern Maine Guerilla Drive-in that I am aware of, and I therefore cannot defend my statement. I thus second the deletion request, and will not retouch the topic until I have data to support its significance. My apologies for any inconvenience. Alex Peppe 00:12, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
