Casco Bay Brewing Co.
I am concerned that this brewery is not notable, as the only thing close to a reference is a trivial mention in one article. Does this brewery meet WP:CORP enough, or should it, and others like it be considered for deletion? FrozenPurpleCube 14:37, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Links to the official website, and as a Maine citizen I can say that we all enjoy the fruits of its labor up here ;). Kntrabssi 15:03, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, you are not a reliable source as to what the people of Maine enjoy, nor is the link to the official website establishing of notability. Pretty much every business can make a website, but not all businesses should get Wikipedia articles.  And note, I am not questioning the truth of anything in the article, I am questioning the notability.  Please consider your comments in that light.  FrozenPurpleCube 15:11, 13 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep, verifiable, and at least mildly notable outside its community. They make the claim that one of their beers took a gold medal at the World Beer Cup. - Smerdis of Tlön 16:47, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Is receiving a single gold medal out of 85 at an event of itself less than certain notability a good indicator of a breweries notability? And does this mean all the other winners of a single medal should have articles? (Assuming reliable information could be found about them, of course).  I think that might be setting the bar a little low myself.    FrozenPurpleCube 17:04, 13 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep or maybe downgrade to tagging.  Other articles in this category look similar (except for the one that the nominator has prodded), and I see enough evidence of notability in the local area, not less than what would be for a high school, for example. YechielMan 16:02, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, this like many other smallbreweries/brewpubs has absolutely no notability within the world of beer. Granted, in its location it may be highly notable, however, not all Wikipedia users live in that area. In fairness, there are many other such articles about equally unnotable breweries and brewpubs.Mikebe 12:29, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
