[edit] The Magic Camp
Deleted multiple times under WP:CSD#G11 and WP:CSD#A7, but author keeps recreating article. NN summer camp, probable WP:COI and WP:SPAM. Leuko 02:13, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete appears to be barely notable in a local way. Zero national or international notability asserted. --Daniel J. Leivick 02:36, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- SOURCED local importance given by recept of the 2004 "Creative Business Award" [1] from "Business Investment Growth Austin", a 'non-profit micro-enterprise development organization' [2]. Other claims are unsourced. Beyond that, the article is nothing more than "We are a summer camp. We do summer camp things", and thereby being broadly indistinguishable from the hundreds or thousands of summer camps in the United States of America and worldwide. Delete unless multiple externally verifiable sources containing information about the camp can be provided. As an alternate, add a paragraph (no more) sourced from the camp website about the camp to the Kent Cummins article (being one of the founders). This is pending the deletion discussion for Mr. Cummins. -- saberwyn 04:33, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, fails WP:N in that this was all I could find[3]--Dhartung | Talk 06:50, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

- Save WP:V and WP:N have been fixed ZimmerBarnes 22:17, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- Comment: IMHO, WP:V was never a problem, but WP:N was, and again IMHO, still isn't resolved. A event listing, another event listing in a local newsletter, and a listing on a local parenting website really aren't non-trival coverage as required by WP:N. Also, the blog posting is not only not a WP:RS, it's self-written, leading to WP:COI problems. Leuko 22:26, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- Comment What is our cutoff point for notoriety? There are some claims for local accolades and honors with references. While we want to weed out highschool and college kids promoting themselves, at what point do we tell an organization that you're not worthy? Bbagot 04:29, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

- Comment The blog isn't a blog, it's news footage, which should fix both WP:N and WP:COI as it is supported by a major news agency, the Austin-American Statesman. ZimmerBarnes 22:38, 13 February 2007 (UTC)ZimmerBarnes
- Comment: I was talking about the TypePad blog, which is obviously a blog. Leuko 00:44, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
