[edit] Soor Plooms

I created this article, but I can't determine from the sources whether it is truly notable. Generates a considerable number of Google Scholar and Google Books results, and featured in an Oor Wullie cartoon, but I'm not convinced about notability. h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 23:32, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

It seems like every time I create a new article, I have notability doubts, and nominate my own new articles for deletion regularly. Is this necessarily a bad thing?--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 23:40, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep For borderline notability, I am inclined to keep until there is convincing evidence that this can't be expanded. I have added a couple more historic facts to the article. –Pomte 09:05, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Thanks. It's definitely better now. I just wasn't sure how to wire the source information available into the article, and you've done it well. My initial doubts arose considering whether the coverage is more than trivial, but it definitely is, and it's not advertising for a brand-name product in any way. Definitely notable and this AfD should be closed as keep.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 22:14, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
