Cosmo (restaurant)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I'm bringing this to AfD because the article has already been tagged as db-corp twice this morning here and here, though in my opinion a claim to be a nationwide restaurant chain asserts significance, and the article has references to The Daily Mail and STV, amongst other reliable sources.

 * Keep As well as the above sources, this Croydon News source states Cosmo is "One of the largest restaurants in the UK" and this Guardian source is a rather uncomplimentary review of one restaurant and this Express and Star source is another review of one of the restaurants. Enough coverage in reliable sources to pass WP:GNG. -- Ritchie333 (talk)  (cont)   12:00, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep This needs clean up not deletion. Insomesia (talk) 19:39, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep You brought this to AFD even though you don't want it deleted? Uh... can someone do a speedy close here?   D r e a m Focus  19:41, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
 * It is possible, though unusual, for editors to do a "procedural AfD" for articles other editors think should be deleted (in this case, two editors independently wanting it to be speedied, though one since retracted). -- Ritchie333 (talk)  (cont)   11:07, 23 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep I'll go with a speedy close for now and hope it is indeed improved and made more encyclopaedic and less corporate. ww2censor (talk) 22:56, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Snow Keep. --Milowent • hasspoken 01:28, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep -- a relatively small restaurant chain. Rather a lot of the citations appear to be to the company website, but I assumne it meets the verifiable test.  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:49, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep More than enough references. --DThomsen8 (talk) 20:39, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. Its claims to have Britain's largest restaurant are sufficient. It also serves very good food (yes, yes, I know that's not a good reason for keeping, but I thought I'd add it anyway!). I think Ritchie333's reasons for bringing this to AfD were perfectly acceptable. Now hopefully we can let this one rest without any more spurious speedy tags being added. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:16, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
