[edit] The Alternative (newspaper)

The Alternative (newspaper) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Prod tag removed, so here we are. Unreferenced, nn underground student paper with a single issue, no press/sources[1]. Shawisland (talk) 07:26, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Delete per nom. Article consists entirely of high school attitude-posturing. Sorry kids, we don't care if you say your school administration tried to shut you down, and your own MySpace is not a reference. Potatoswatter (talk) 07:34, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Delete. Totally, utterly non-notable. Even if they may one day be notable in the future (which I doubt), WP:CRYSTAL applies. TallNapoleon (talk) 08:07, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Speedy delete, fails to establish notability, also, WP:SOAP issues. MrPrada (talk) 08:09, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete, high school newspapers are not usually notable. This one appears to be no exception. Lankiveil (speak to me) 11:44, 24 April 2008 (UTC).
  • Save, Why do you waste your time citing articles with at least some substance? It seems that one in every few articles I read is littered with inappropriate photos of the male anatomy. Try to remedy these issues before attacking those which are a lesser threat. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bman1225cal (talk • contribs) 23:31, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
    • "There's other stuff that's worse" is not a justification for keeping something that's totally, utterly non-notable. TallNapoleon (talk) 23:47, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
