Unofficial
Firstly, as an encyclopedia Wikipedia is primarily interested in things of broad national or international significance, and not generally in things of exclusively local interest to a single community; it's worth noting that your article was sourced exclusively to local media, with no evidence provided that it has any discernible notability to anyone living outside the immediate Champaign-Urbana area. And secondly, even if you genuinely feel that the event should have an article, it belongs at a "disambiguated" title such as Unofficial (event) or Unofficial St. Patrick's Day, not at simply "Unofficial" — because the event is not the main encyclopedic meaning of the plain title "Unofficial". It's at best a secondary if not tertiary meaning of the word, and not the primary one that warrants being the primary topic. Bearcat (talk) 00:39, 30 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Just for the record, I'll quite happily leave the article alone (except for possibly a bit of maintenance tagging if necessary) if you go ahead and create it at one of the alternate titles. Also, when you post a comment to someone else's talk page, you should actually type four tildes, ~, at the end of it so that your "signature" appears at the end of the comment. Thanks.
