[edit] Avalon International Breads

A puff for a neighbourhood bakery; just one useful article links to it; does not meet WP:CORP and does not assert notability beyond a vague and unverifiable claim that it has helped to revitalise a corner of Detroit. The bakery achieves 110 unique Google hits (I closed my business two years ago and it still gets over 2,000...). Prod disputed, so I am nominating on AfD Humansdorpie 20:55, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Not notable outside Detroit, as far as I can tell. (Although, if they made the bread used in the Spanjo sandwich, also up for deletion, that might complicate the issue.) --Elkman - ^(talk) 22:45, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Not notable on global scale. -- Krash (Talk) 01:56, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. How does it not meet WP:CORP? WP:CORP requires coverage...that's what the Google links are. The claim that it revitalized part of Detriot is claimed in one of the reviews, so all we have to do is make sure it's properly attributed and, BAM, verifiable. There is no requirement that a company be "globally" notable, and Detriot is a big city. NickelShoe 23:42, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Unverifiable, but not notable beyond a neighbourhood. Stifle 00:54, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per NickelShoe. -- JJay 02:10, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete'. Bakery. Does not meet WP:BAKERY. Should have been speedied under {{db|bakery}}. Besides which: it's a bakery.Herostratus 23:51, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Could you please explain why you think it doesn't pass WP:CORP? I explained why I thought it did. NickelShoe (Talk) 00:13, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
