Talk:Adelphia (fancies)

Notability
The original of this article was speedied on 8 January 2008. I have notified the original nominator and the deleter of this recreation.

The first was deleted for "(CSD A7 (Band): Article about a band that does not assert significance)".

Adelphia is not a band and the article is sourced to several reliable, third-party sources.

My intention is to create articles for each of the clubs of the Mummers Parade. I knew that Adelphia, as a rare newby in the parade, would be the most difficult to source and/or support against deletion, so I decided to go with them first (they also popped up first in my searches for sources).

My common sense rationale starts with a centuries old parade, an official part of one of the largest cities in the country for over one hundred years. I know that notability is not inherited, but the strict limitations on the admission of new clubs to this institution seems to form a notability criteria. While admission to the Parade is not a "prize" in most senses, I feel it is similar.

Local organization that is not notable. Equivalent of a garage band. Ought to be merged into Mummers Parade and this article deleted.--ColonelHenry (talk) 21:23, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
 * A "garage band" covered in Philadelphia Daily News, About.com, Philadelphia Magazine, Associated Press and Courier-Post is a notable garage band. -  Sum mer PhD  (talk) 22:03, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Disagree. Those papers report also on topics of local interest as mundane as bake sales by local churches. Adelphia is the equivalent of a local bake sale. The Mummers Parade is just a larger bake sale. On its own, Adelphia is not notable. The Mummers Parade is. Material ought to be incorporated into Mummers Parade.--ColonelHenry (talk) 06:11, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
 * So, Adelphia is a bake sale which is part of a larger bake sale, though the larger bake sale is a notable bake sale. (Previously, this non-band was equivalent to a garage band.) Something is apparently getting lost in your analogies. You'll need to be more direct. What part of WP:GNG do you feel this fails? - Sum mer PhD  (talk) 12:06, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
