Deep South News

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable newspaper. The article itself acknowledges that its distribution is very limited. Google finds 52 hits for, many of which aren't related, and none of which include substantial coverage in independent, reliable sources. —Largo Plazo (talk) 12:47, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

Deep South News is a small news company by definition. Having a presence on Wikipedia provides a sense of pride for our employees they have not experienced before. If Wikipedia cannot accept pages that define small businesses, that is disappointing. Is there additional information we can provide to have the page reconsidered? Thank you for the help.

 * I'm sorry, but in the interest of its value as a reference work, Wikipedia is restricted to notable topics. If anyone in the course of this discussion can provide evidence that the paper meets any of the applicable notability criteria, the article is welcome to stay. —Largo Plazo (talk) 13:32, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
