Bohol Chronicle

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable newspaper. Suggest delete and merge with Bohol town article. Oscarthecat (talk) 22:25, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete and merge per nom — Fails WP:NOTABILITY. —Cyclonenim (talk · contribs · email) 23:58, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. A Google Books search shows clear notability, with this book having a sixteen-page chapter about the subject. I'd also point out a couple of flaws with the nomination: firstly it suggests merging, not deletion, so shouldn't really be at AfD at all, and secondly Bohol is not a town, but a province with a population of over a million. Would anyone suggest that articles on every institution or business in Montana, which has a smaller population, should be merged with the article on the state? Of course not, and this proposal is equivalent to that. Phil Bridger (talk) 22:36, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep per Phil bridger's investigation and explanation. Well established newspapers and magazines are quite notable. ChildofMidnight (talk) 17:34, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Why is it non-notable? The article itself asserts notability and Phil above established notability. --seav (talk) 02:20, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep, but I must add that this one needs improvements. To extend Phil Bridger's analogy, it would be like AfD'ing the leading newspaper of Alaska or Vermont just because it isn't as widely circulated as the New York Times or the Washington Post. --- Tito Pao (talk) 08:19, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
