Aeon Award

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article about a literary award, not properly referenced as having any notability. Like other awards, literary awards are not automatically deemed notable just because their own primary source websites about themselves technically verify that they exist -- like any other topic, the notability test is the reception of reliable source media coverage (i.e. in newspapers, magazines, books, etc.) in sources that are independent of its own self-published web presence. But there's no referencing being shown here at all beyond its own website. Bearcat (talk) 23:33, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete Well, there's a 125-word blurb on the occasion of the first awards in That's about it for the award itself, as search mostly finds announcements of how to pay the fee and submit work for the award, which is actually a contest, along with passing mentions in author bios like "X, who has won the Aeon Award". It seems to be one of many WP:MILL literary contests, lacking the significant coverage that suggests sufficient notability to merit a Wikipedia article. Bakazaka (talk) 23:51, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
