[edit] Galerie Jeleni

Seems not notable enough "Galerie Jeleni" on google only returns 650 results. _→AzaToth 23:05, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

• And what do those 650 web pages contain? Counting Google Web hits is not research, remember. Uncle G 00:41, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
  • It seems to be a smaller local art gallery in Czech Republic. _→AzaToth 00:50, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

 AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• Weak Keep. It's not a blatant advert, and it doesn't look too obscure. yandman 14:33, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. It is a small gallery, actually one of two (the second is open air one placed on an old fortification wall) operated by a a foundation. There are quite a many galleries in the Czech Republic, usually tiny and struggling financially (art isn't the best selling commodity here). The few large, state funded galleries like the National Gallery in Prague are worth an article, this one not.

Few details from annual report 2004 [1]: 3 employees, 18 exhibitions in 2004, concentrating on "presentation of new unproven trends in arts by young artists" (most of them are students, an example of exhibition is a presentation what a student saw on exchange in New York :), 2004 budget: 2 millions of CZK, 100% grants (such ability is perhaps the most remarkable as serious projects always struggle).

Diacritics is completely missing. NN, IMHO ad. Pavel Vozenilek 15:08, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Browsing their website, the next exhibition is an "amateur pornofilm" [2] (professional male + a female music group "Noise Pictures"). My tax money at work :-( Pavel Vozenilek 15:16, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Haha, I hope you visit that exhibition :) _→AzaToth 15:46, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

It's generally accepted in the WP:MOS that diacritics are not used in English-language titles. ColourBurst 20:32, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Gosh, now I must rework practically all Czech related articles. Pavel Vozenilek 20:51, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

• Weak Keep The Goerge Soros connection brings some notability to it. It seems to arguably qualify for the proposed WP:LOCAL guidlines. --Marriedtofilm 03:57, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as non-notable, or merge to the locality (where is it exactly?), which is actually what WP:LOCAL would suggest. Vectro 23:22, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
