Irish dance of Phoenix, AZ[edit]

Deceptively well-written, this article just tells the history of a dance company. It's really just a plug for a company. Not notable. — Brim 06:36, Feb 9, 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete, not notable, personal essay. Megan1967 06:55, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep but remove promotional bias. A dance school established for 40-something years is notable. --Centauri 07:47, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • No dance school is notable unless it's being run by the Champions or the Castles. Delete. RickK 08:02, Feb 9, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep long-lived and definitely notable. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 15:01, Feb 9, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, it's a local dance school. I tried to clean it up but sadly, found nothing keepable. I've left the cleanup tag for anyone else who wants to try. Wyss 19:38, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. If the original author can't be bothered to clean up why should we. -- RHaworth 21:24, 2005 Feb 9 (UTC)
Comment: because that's the whole point of a wiki. Dan100 21:51, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. I cannot be bothered to read the entire thing, but the first few paragraphs do not establish notability, which is about the first thing any encyclopedia article should do (one should not, for example, have to read about someone's favorite foods an TV shows before being informed that they are the President of Tajikistan). It seems those voting to keep are doing so because it has been around a while. Thousands of businesses have been around for 40 years; that doesn't make them notable. -R. fiend 20:48, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete: promo. Cut-n-paste from a geocities.com web site (extlink in the article). Wile E. Heresiarch 04:54, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Trivial. Gamaliel 07:26, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
