[edit] Northstar at tahoe
Developer flogging upcoming ski resort project. Plenty of facts, and perhaps it's notable in some way or could be but I just don't see it. Daniel Case 04:41, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
The Northstar at tahoe entry has been edited to address your concern. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tahoetracy (talk • contribs)
- Uh, no. I don't see more than ad copy, basically, just what you might find in a brochure or website. All the editing did was make it look nicer. Daniel Case 17:54, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
- Comment - see also Northstar at Tahoe. User has been creating various non-notable location articles. --Fang Aili talk 17:30, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

- weak keep this article does sound like an ad, but I do agree that this is a topic worthy of a wiki article I've been hearing their ads on radio for years now... mathewguiver 20:37, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
- Comment: There are several other small-to-medium ski resorts linked from Lake Tahoe: Alpine Meadows, Diamond Peak & others presently red-links. Perhaps a page of 'Lake Tahoe ski resorts' could be created with brief summary info for all the non-major ones? Espresso Addict 20:52, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
- Strong Keep I agree the present tone of the text is a little brochure-ish, but in terms of notability I don't think there's any question. Northstar-at-Tahoe (it usually has those dashes) is a massive, long-established winter resort, one of the most popular of its kind in Northern California. It was particularly notable for being one of the first resorts to embrace snowboarders, at a time when others were kicking them off of the slopes. As a result, Northstar is often referenced in writings on snowboarding. It's also a regular venue for competitions, and is frequently in the media. I just got 276,000 ghits on a quick search. --Pagana 21:37, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Seems notable. If kept move to Northstar-at-Tahoe which appears to be the accepted spelling. Vegaswikian 07:18, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete or Merge the salient parts into Lake Tahoe wintersports or somesuch. Notable, but this is a Wikitravel entry. ~ trialsanderrors 01:20, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
