[edit] Fort Washington Fire Company
No indication of any particular notability or encyclopedic value. There are tens of thousands of such fire departmetns, most not relevant to anyone outside their service area, and indeed almost totally unknown outside said area. A paragraph in Upper Dublin Township, Pennsylvania or Fort Washington, Pennsylvania, possibly with an extrnal link, would serve better to present such relevant information as there is on this topic. There is a good deal of very local history in this article, but many many local institutions could have as much history, and i don't see that it is notabel or encyclopedic. Delete.

- Keep. Important public service and a pretty decent article. Too long to merge with the township. Sjakkalle (Check!) 09:00, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

- Keep per Sjakkalle. Clear example of how a bit of meat to an entry can turn it into an actual article. - Mgm|(talk) 09:57, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Can't think of a good reason to delete an article about a fire department. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 00:13, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
