[edit] Buck Hill Inn

Buck Hill Inn (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Tempted to speedy this as spam, but it barely escaped. Certainly not notable and no references. ukexpat (talk) 14:49, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep. Google News at http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=%22Buck+Hill+Inn%22 has lots of references. See also http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Buck+Hill+Inn%22+site%3Anytimes.com for three brief references in the New York Times to Buck Hill Inn and past owners. I wouldn't categorize this as an advertisement. --Eastmain (talk) 15:45, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Needs rewrite The article as written looks very much like an advertisement. The entire center section is off of a message board. That is not a reliable source. DarkAudit (talk) 18:40, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete as copyvio of http://www.tv.com/fear/buck-hill-inn/episode/137695/recap.html DarkAudit (talk) 18:40, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
    • Speedy was declined and most of the article chopped away as a result. What's left still looks like advertising copy. The references provided in the article itself are blogs, message boards, and a real estate developer. Nothing generally considered a reliable source. Best to start over from scratch.

  • Delete Even with the copyvio removed, this doesn't really assert notability. I could find nothing but trivial mentions amid the Google News sources. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 20:49, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
  • I'm game for a merge with Buck Hill Falls, Pennsylvania. I don't think Buck Hill Inn asserts enough notability itself. The New York Times piece is more about the actual resort rather than the inn. I think a merge would be the best option, as there is not enough non-advertising material to sustain both articles.
