[edit] Crazy Daisy Nightclub
I love The Human League, but I quetion the notability of this article. It's definitely written with a POV tone and the image is way too large but aside from that, did the club have any other claim to fame besides the Human League connection? It's not like this place was the Hacienda or CBGBs or some other notable, iconic pop music club. -- eo 19:26, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, only references are in relation to the girls' discovery. Not enough for an article. --Dhartung | Talk 23:24, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Keep - My Reply, If the article needs rewriting then so be it. But as regards the notability I strongly disagree. The 'Crazy Daisy' nightclub is listed in the Official Sheffield City Council history of the city.Which is why it is in the Sheffield Catagory as well as The Human League. It is mentioned in over a dozen Human League and Electronic Music websites in UK and US. It is referred to in a number of interviews of Gayle, Oakey and Catherall particularly the BBC Online. A Google search will throw up more. This may prompt a wiki search by an interested party. Of course the club is only notable for discovery of Gayle (Sulley) and Catherall, but that incident alone is deeply embedded in British popular folklore, which even non Human League fans know. When Susan is interviewed by the media she is nearly always still asked to tell the story, 27 years later. If that is your rationale for deletion then please also delete the Viper Room entry which is only notable for the death of River Phoenix. The article will be expanded by virtue of it's presence on wiki, where someone with more info than me can add to it. For obvious reasons a historical location from a quarter of a century ago doesn’t have that much readily available information, that is what I thought Wikipedia was created to provide. Rest assured when I next speak to Susan Gayle I will ask her for some background info on the club.

- Weak keep. I have to agree with Andi064. Although the current article is not up to scratch, some rewritting should bring it to standard. I have quarrels with the notability of the place, providing Andi can give us sources to the Official Sheffield City Council history of the city.

- Keep and rewrite per this search... Addhoc 23:43, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. We all seem to agree that the club's only claim to notability is the Human League link. However, the Crazy Daisy story is already covered in greater detail in both the Susanne Sulley and Joanne Catherall articles. That seems like enough.--Kubigula (talk) 04:28, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Thin claim to notability, thin coverage, even in the Google News archives. Sandstein 19:57, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
