[edit] The Purple Turtle (bar)
Non-notable small group of bars.Masaruemoto 02:27, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete: Per nom. Non-notable. Seicer (talk) (contribs) 04:44, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
- comment On the one hand the pubs appear in a bunch of pub guides (as Googling will show) is pretty well established and popular. I'm not sure there's anything else that distinctive about them that would give more meat to the article. What are the notability guidelines for pubs anyway? Artw 06:31, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
- comment I don't know either, though I live in Reading and the bar there is popular and quite well known locally. How well known the other two are is unknown. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alberon (talk • contribs) 11:08, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
- Quite well known in Camden, though a little looked down apon by pub snobs. I've had drinks there a fair few times. Artw 22:28, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

- Weak delete. Google and even Google News do return some results, and some of these may even be WP:RS, but coverage does appear to be trivial. I may change my mind though if people can adequately source this.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 13:04, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

- Delete: Non notable places. Stubs have guidelines too. - Rjd0060 04:48, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
- As I said in the comment above I live in the home town of the bar and while it is well known it isn't really notable for anything. So, regretfully, I have to say Delete Alberon 10:26, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete not a notable company. Nothing specifically notable about the Turtles to make them interesting to non-patrons. MLA 16:27, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete: Fails policy WP:Notable as it has nothing of notability outside of being a popular local bar.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 20:44, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
