- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was no consensus. Of note is that two of the delete !votes come across as based solely upon personal opinion, as the topic being too trivial in nature. However, notability guidelines do not extend to cover such subjective opinions. Some sources were presented, but afterward, not much analysis occurred here about them other than some minor commentary. North America 1000 07:54, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

I do not believe this organization has received significant coverage from independent sources. I found some websites that make a trivial mention about some of the history. EvilxFish ( talk) 07:23, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

- Delete. Way too trivial. NYC Guru ( talk) 02:43, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
- There seems to be some coverage of it, for example Bucks County Magazine, Burlington County Times, The Philadelphia Inquirer ( 2, 3, 4, 5, 6), Messenger-Press, Philadelphia Daily News, Bucks Happening. Looks like a GNG pass but I'm not too familiar with the business notability guidelines so won't be !voting. BeanieFan11 ( talk) 18:26, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

Delete. As said above, this is way too trivial. I'm amazed that it has been on Wikipedia since 2009. Athel cb ( talk) 09:15, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
- We don't determine notability on whether a user thinks the article is of little value/importance (trivial definition), but rather, on whether an article has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Are you saying that the above sources (some of which -
1
2 are full pages long in major newspapers) do not meet this standard?

- Agree with the first point, but as for the notability being established by those sources, I am unsure whether this is the case because of the rather vague nature of what constitutes "significant coverage". Whereas it is well known in the area I work in what we would consider significant coverage or not, I am not sure if the newspaper articles qualify as such here. I will leave it up to people who know better to decide but if I found those newspapers when I first searched for sources, I don't think I would have created this!

- Draftify - unclear notability, though there are numerous RSs as seen above. I would be keen to see if the article could be fleshed out, but the current information seems somewhat generic and/or unsourced.

- I could probably write a sourced version in 1-3 days, although it probably wouldn't be super long and detailed, since I have no experience in this topic area. BeanieFan11 ( talk) 22:33, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
- Keep The Inquirer piece looks the best, the rest also help GNG. The Zagat article shows notability and critical notice of the place. Oaktree b ( talk) 00:21, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

- This needs a WP:Heymann. Any restaurant that has a history dating back to 1832 is quite likely notable, and particularly in the US. Closer, if the result is delete, would you please userfy it to me? I'm travelling right now and busy with other things, but if the alternative is that it goes away I'll get to it.
