[edit] Cheese for Chee Day

Non-notable -- at best -- school fundraiser, at some school in the UK (article doesn't even mention the city). No Google hits whatsoever; no sources provided, not even a webpage. Prod tag AND (sources) tags removed, with the only comment being from the talk page: This article was not written as a hoax. It is a serious event that takes place at the aforementioned school. It is a relatively new and held by a small charitable organisation. The idea of setting up the wikipedia article was to raise the profile of this event and making it more widely known to the public. Deleting this article is discriminating against the community who do take part. Calton | Talk 13:18, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, proudly discriminating against non-notability. Sandstein 13:30, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom as NN fundraiser at NN school, fails WP:V as well. The commenter might take a peek at WP:CHILL in the meantime. RGTraynor 13:41, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Let's not bite the newcomers. This article should be deleted because the event is not notable and is of no interest outside the small community taking part. The fact that an event is serious, that it definitely took place, and that the article on it was created to raise awareness - none of this matters next to the question "does it belong in an encyclopedia?"

• Delete Not notable outside its participants. Worthy, yes; but it fails "does it belong in an encyclopedia?". Mr Stephen 14:06, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• delete Sorry guys. Dominick ^(TALK) 14:24, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete The subject of the article is non-notable and the editor(s) of the article attempt(s) to use WP as freespace. -- Kicking222 15:59, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, per all the above. Tonywalton  | Talk 16:34, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Anyone can edit wikipedia, but there are some guidelines to read, like WP:N. However, good luck with the fund-raising. Tyrenius 18:34, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, nn. --Terence Ong 04:47, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete – when will people learn that you don't create a Wikipedia article to raise the profile of a subject? It works the other way around – Gurch 13:37, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
