[edit] Pocono Playhouse

Pocono Playhouse (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Prod removed, bringing it here as I agree with deletion. Giggy UCP 10:06, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Keep this playhouse is historic, if I remember correctly from reading it's website some months back. It is an important cultural institution in the area. If anything, the article can benefit from expert attention and not deletion. Postcard Cathy
  • Keep, but rewrite so that the article reads less like an add --Onceonthisisland 15:24, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Pennsylvania-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 15:04, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, needs cleanup but historically notable as a major regional stage. --Dhartung | Talk 16:58, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep No reason given for deletion. Hawkestone 19:06, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per Hawkestone, no cogent argument for deletion. Dhaluza 01:27, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak delete. A Google Books search shows that many notable performers have appeared here in summer-stock productions over the years; but in the absence of sources treating this particular venue as a separate topic, I'm not seeing evidence of notability. Deor 02:19, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep as well-known by us Broadway-lovers. Much material was deleted by unregistered users... why? 20:05, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. The only material deleted was schedules, prices, and other stuff that was in clear violation of WP:NOT. If the place is so well-known, perhaps you or some of the other keep !voters could point editors toward some reliable sources that could be used to expand this article beyond a mere assertion of existence.
