Blount County Rescue Squad

NN non-profit organization. There is some coverage in local community newspapers. The article has been tagged for notability for five years and still has no references other than its own website. Does not meet WP:NORG. MB 15:29, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep WP:NOTCLEANUP the article needs an editor not deletion. City of Alcoa, Priority Ambulance, Knox News, The Daily Times Lightburst (talk) 18:35, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Related/non-independent sources do not count towards notability. And WP:AUD says "attention solely from local media, or media of limited interest and circulation, is not an indication of notability" MB 19:29, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * There is quite a lot of RS out there. I had other things to do so I did not keep going. Also there is not a requirement that coverage go beyond local/regional. Just that it be Reliable. WP:N The subject meets GNG and therefore ORG is trumped. Lightburst (talk) 02:35, 23 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep The History Channel has produced a feature about them and that's not local news; it's an international channel. Andrew D. (talk) 22:09, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * That wasn't news at all. It was an entertainment show called "Rescue Trucks" that was part of "Ford's Truck Weekend in America" and according to a blurb about the episode, "true to its name, 'Rescue Trucks' largely focused on the trucks BCRS uses to respond to accidents". Per WP:ORGDEPTH, "Sources that describe only a specific topic related to an organization should not be regarded as providing significant coverage of that organization". Still no in-depth/significant coverage of the organization. MB 01:16, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
