A florist shop in a Florida strip mall with strictly local note in reliable sources fails WP:CORP for inclusion in Wikipedia. ☆ Bri (talk) 05:32, 6 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep A news search shows many hits, possibly just local news, but I think enough to be able to properly expand the article. Also see comments in AfD #1. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  15:26, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Are you saying the article should be built with "just local news" sources? Because that is contrary to WP practice and encourages local-interest trivia. ☆ Bri (talk) 15:51, 14 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete Had a look at what shows up in the above-mentioned search. There is no substantial, in-depth coverage. Winner of "Best Flowers" in a local magazine is not enough. Mduvekot (talk) 19:11, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep Passes GNG. L3X1 (distænt write)   )evidence(  03:24, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
 * This would be a better debate if we knew why you think it passes GNG. ☆ Bri (talk) 04:11, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: To allow L3X1 to address Bri's question

 * Delete: I have added to the company's history using consolidated references, seeking to provide the expansion which was proposed above. However, while the shop's opening hours and local Sarasota County award, and more recent SRQ Local 2017 Best Flowers poll all indicate people working to make a success of their business, they are not substantial claims to encyclopaedic notability. Neither these nor the coverage of the sale of the business seem sufficient to demonstrate WP:CORPDEPTH or WP:GNG. AllyD (talk) 14:53, 15 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete no claim of notability Power~enwiki (talk) 04:54, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete -- no claim of significance; just a directory listing on a private company which is just going about its business. K.e.coffman (talk) 04:59, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete, not notable; local trivial interest and Wikipedia is not a newspaper. It is only a promo piece. Kierzek (talk) 20:47, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per the news link Ritchie provided. Only local sources that are fluff pieces not substantial enough to meet the requirements of WP:N. TonyBallioni (talk) 01:22, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG and WP:SPIP. Wikipedia is not a platform for marketing local business. -- HighKing ++ 16:31, 19 August 2017 (UTC)
