Collision Conference

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

What secondary sourcing there is here is not enough for this to pass the GNG. Plus, what there is is really not great--this is basically an op-ed piece that does little more than promote, and this reads the same way. This might help--but it's actually not about this particular conference, if it's anything at all, but points at the walled garden that this seems to be part of.

I have added a variety of extra sources to show the notability of the conference, such as coverage from USA Today, The Guardian, and Inc.com. The USA Today article suggests that Collision Conference is the biggest rival to SXSW, which already has a very established Wikipedia page. Similar smaller, not as notable, events already have Wikipedia pages such as Slush and Dublin Tech Summit with less notable sources than Collision. If these events are considered notable enough for Wikipedia, then Collision is too. --JordanSamBoyd (talk) 09:02, 28 August 2017 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete -- Sources fail WP:ORGDEPTH, being passing mentions and / or WP:SPIP coverage. The page exists to promote the event and its organizers. An apparent walled garden around Web Summit, the parent company. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:08, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Per Coffman's SPIP point.--SamHolt6 (talk) 04:39, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
