Talk:Bailey's Taproom

"Upper Lip"
There's clearly a connection between Bailey's and Upper Lip. Right now Upper Lip is mentioned in passing, but I think details about this business could be added here as well.

This should be taken into consideration in the ongoing AfD discussion. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 18:33, 21 December 2022 (UTC)


 * I checked the Business Registry for both Bailey's Taproom and also for "The Upper Lip" and "Upper Lip", which according to the Secretary of State was never a separate entity from Bailey's Tap Room. Sorry I don't have time this week to do more, getting ready for visit from Colorado grandkids. — Grand&#39;mere Eugene (talk) 22:52, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Please do not remove details about The Upper Lip without consensus. Thank you. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 18:39, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
 * This source refers to the Upper Lip as "Bailey's Taproom's secret upstairs bar", indicating it is not a separate business entity.
 * I also double checked the Secretary of State's site as when I looked before (see above), I didn't search on "Bailey's Upper Lip". The result: also "Your search returned no business entry names." — Grand&#39;mere Eugene (talk) 21:19, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
 * It is standard to write an article about one subject, not two. And you are not the owner with veto-right on this (or any other) article. The Banner  talk 21:46, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Even so, you need to look at the official business record showing 720 SW Ankeny Street (the Upper Lip's address) is on that same business registry as Bailey's Taproom at 213 SW Broadway.
 * If you Google directions for the two locations, they are literally around the corner from each other, probably in the same building.
 * The subject is Bailey's Taproom, which expanded into the Upper Lip space, not two different subjects. Cheers! — Grand&#39;mere Eugene (talk) 22:18, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
 * What means that Upper Lip is irrelevant, as it is just part of BT. The Banner  talk 23:02, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
 * @The Banner From what I can tell, User:Grand'mere Eugene and I prefer to keep details about Upper Lip here. Please restore the content per current consensus. Perhaps User:BuySomeApples would like to weigh in as the GA reviewer? --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:21, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Updated my text since User:Grand'mere Eugene has already reverted. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:22, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
 * So now every backroom bar is now worth mentioning. I have earlier stated my concern about the promo-level of your articles and this reinforces that concern. The Banner  talk 23:34, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
 * My concern is that you seem to prefer ignoring factual evidence when it doesn't support your pre-conceived rationale for disapproving this article's notability. When you are wrong, it would be more appropriate to let it go, rather than continuing to bad-mouth the process. — Grand&#39;mere Eugene (talk) 23:46, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I have concerns about the promo-level of this article. As far as I know, I am allowed to voice that opinion. The Banner  talk 10:01, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I am in support of leaving that information in the article since it amounts to a brief mention and was clearly worth being noted by secondary sources. Per WP:NOTEWORTHY notability guidelines don't apply to all of the content within an article, only whether the article should exist or not. It's and verifiable and it doesn't seem to be undue weight.

Social media activity
Several sources (example) mention the bar's social media activities. Might be worth mentioning. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 18:57, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Completely irrelevant. There are millions of businesses active on social media. The Banner  talk 21:53, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
