This newspaper is not notable; I could only find brief mentions of it from local news providers. Thus, because the brief mentions cannot satisfy our general notability guidelines and are not up to our standard of verifiability, the article should be deleted.

 * The newspaper is mentioned in offline media. For example, the York daily record ran an article on it. TheKing44 (talk) 19:37, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Are there any more sources besides that? Also, you should cite your sources in the article. RileyBugz 私に叫ぼう私の編集 19:39, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
 * We're still looking for the article. Offline articles are harder to find. TheKing44 (talk) 22:44, 24 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep - In this era when Facebook & Friends are combating dezinformatsiia with links to Wikipedia pages of established publications, we need to make doubly sure to be providing that information. IAR keep. Carrite (talk) 17:11, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
 * The thing is, the paper doesn't seem to be online; I cannot find any of its articles. Thus, having a Wikipedia entry wouldn't much help fight against disinformation. RileyBugz 私に叫ぼう私の編集 18:01, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
 * There are articles here: http://dillsburgbanner.net/news.htm TheKing44 (talk) 23:11, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I stand corrected. RileyBugz 私に叫ぼう私の編集 23:27, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete Wikipedia is not a directory. We do not create articles built entirely on Yelp listings. That is all we have here, and there is no sign that this newspaper meets the notability guidelines for papers at all.John Pack Lambert (talk) 23:32, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
