Adventist Health Glendale

Seemingly non-notable, small local hospital. There are sources out there about it and cited in the article, but they all seem to contain extremely trivial information like that they sponsored a local boy scouts group so they could wrap presents for Christmas. Which is cool of them to do, but doesn't make the hospital worthy of an article in Wikipedia. Adamant1 (talk) 05:53, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep as has coverage in multiple reliable sources such as the LA Times, Armenian Weekly, CBC and others. The coverage is not all run of the mill as it includes in the history of the institution a serial killer episode, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 18:57, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure coverage for a single thing, a missionary trip which is extremely trivial IMO, by a few regional news sources really does it. Usually there has to at least be some national coverage due to the whole "broad audience" thing that Wikipedia is intended for and the place has to be notable for more then one event to. Otherwise, we are just acting as a news source. --Adamant1 (talk) 19:09, 11 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep this hospital is notable, and I'm not done adding more information to this article. There is nothing wrong with talking about the work this hospital has done in Armenia.Catfurball (talk) 19:13, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It's pretty you don't know anything about the notability guidelines. It's fine to mention their mission work in the article, but them doing mission work on doesn't help to establish notability on it's own and I never claimed otherwise. Your free to add more information to the article, but if your going to use it as an impetus to vote keep it should follow WP:NCORP. Which judging by what I've seen of your edits so far you don't seem to care about following. --Adamant1 (talk) 20:20, 13 July 2020 (UTC)


 * This article seems to have as many references as most hospital articles. Rathfelder (talk) 08:18, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It's not just about numbers. The question is are they the right kind of references and IMO they aren't. Others are free to disagree though. --Adamant1 (talk) 08:20, 14 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Its been there for 115 years. It would be very surprising if there were not a lot more coverage over the years.  The question is not can we see coverage on Google. Rathfelder (talk) 08:32, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
 * BTW, do you happen to know where there was a discussion/agreement about the number of beds a hospital has and it's notability? A couple of people have said that hospitals over 500 beds are notable, but I can't find anything about it anywhere. --Adamant1 (talk) 09:34, 14 July 2020 (UTC)


 * I'm not aware of any policy like that, but my assumption is that big hospitals generally are notable, and 500 beds is a reasonable size. Rathfelder (talk) 21:39, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep A large hospital in Glendale. >500 beds is the size of a typical teaching hospital so really quite big (Maybe ~20 wards), has a long history and there is a lot of coverage both under this new name and the old name. Beyond the ongoing coverage in the LA times, there is also some coverage in the national media (NYT etc) Seems to be lot of scope for expansion. PainProf (talk) 00:02, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
