Somethings Gotta Give (club) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notable quarterly club night; trivial references (mere mentions or "night out"-type listings). Fails WP:NOTE. Precious Roy (talk) 17:14, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete as per nom. Absolutely no claim of notability in article; borderline advert. --Fabrictramp (talk) 17:44, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Being a resident of the town and an advocate of the local music scene i believe this entry to be valid and worthwhile. The references to an "advert" are unfounded as no mention of upcoming events, dates, locations or even upcoming posters are shown. This is purely a historical and referenced article of local interest. Do not delete. I'm a relatively new user so if this is out or accordance with wiki user behavior I apologize. --Staticseven (talk) 00:15, 30 January 2008 (GMT) — Staticseven (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
  • Delete - in the end, not that notable. Really falls victim per WP:LOCAL as this has gone unnoticed outside of Bolton --T-rex 06:31, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
    • Again I have to disagree. It seems the main argument of WP:LOCAL is that most articles in this case are considered a stub. I don't believe this is the case in this article. --Staticseven (talk) 08:44, 30 January 2008 (GMT)
  • Keep this is not a stub or advertisement. it is background information on a club night with a groundbreaking ethos. i don't understand why this information is up for deletion. --Stairsfallingdownstairs (talk) 09:42, 30 January 2008 (GMT) — Stairsfallingdownstairs (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
  • Delete - fails to convince me of any notability. Also, no indication of any "ground-breaking" ethos. - fchd (talk) 12:20, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep My final point is that if local people/fans have bothered to comment against this articles proposed deletion then its seems to be a worthy addition to wiki. Local people feel it is worthwhile to wiki this subject for others by the simple fact the page has been created, and myself and others are fighting for its position. Surely any serious addition (i.e not comic or fraudulent) deserves a place on wikipedia? --Staticseven (talk) 15:35, 30 January 2008 (GMT) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.134.244.124 (talk) 17:36, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
    • Comment One !vote per person, please. See also WP:NOTE w/r/t notability as a criterion for inclusion in Wikipedia. Precious Roy (talk) 19:10, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Frankly, I would have speedied as G11--the listing of events in the past in this sort of detail is an implied advertisement for the club, and inappropriate use of WP. That some local people like it is not unexpected. I suppose every amateur in their line-up approves of the idea heartily, also. DGG (talk) 22:56, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
    • Comment Jeeze, when you tell me I shoulda speedied it, I guess I really shoulda. Precious Roy (talk) 13:37, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
