[edit] Empire Times

Empire Times (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Defunct student newspaper that never achieved any notability. Fails WP:V due to lack of sources. Delete view. Bridgeplayer 23:10, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

• Keep. It was a university newspaper that was in regular publication for more than forty years. This is a bogus nomination - the nominator has randomly nominated a bunch of newspapers asserting "never achieved any notability" without the slightest research or evidence.

• Keep I do not believe the nominators assertions - unless they know something about australian history sources that I do not know about - more evidence of what in fact has been checked is needed to make this a valid Afd nomination or not SatuSuro 01:26, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep and improve - Clearly it's notable, per what Rebecca told us. But if it was around for 40 years, I'm sure there must be some sources that discuss it. Add them. — Giggy 08:11, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep per Rebecca. Hard to understand the rationale for "never achieved any notability". I assume the nominator has made a simple error. Lankiveil 10:27, 28 August 2007 (UTC).
