Matt's Bar Stub class
I understand there isn't a lot of information here about Matt's Bar but what can I do to make it more than a stub-class article? --Jace (talk) 15:20, 29 March 2010 (UTC)


 * There is nothing wrong with a 'stub' - sometimes, that's all that can be said - from reliable sources. Better a neat, tidy stub than an opinionated, non-factual advert/spam etc.


 * The article does have a notability problem though; for the basic, cover-all general notability guideline it needs significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent. Multiple sources. One will not suffice. If there aren't enough, it may be deleted.


 * Sorry I cannot be more encouraging, but that is the way things are; user:chzz/vrs.


 * For more help, you can either;


 * Leave a message on my own talk page;
 * Use a - please create a new section at the end of your own talk page, put , and ask your question - remember to 'sign' your name by putting ~ at the end;
 * Talk to us live, with this or this.


 * The last of those is particularly useful - please try it; pop in now and say hello.  Chzz  ►  16:21, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
