Dragon Stakes

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article includes no indication of subject's notability. KDS 4444 Talk  19:36, 3 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep Looks like a perfectly decent stub article to me. Plenty of sources available. Lots of room for development obviously, but not the sort of thing that deserved an AFD tag dropped on it an hour after it was created.  Tigerboy1966  13:09, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
 * My understanding has been that the length of time before an article may be considered for an AfD nomination is measured in minutes, not hours, and the article had no reliable, independent sources when I nominated it. It still does not. As an AfD nomination, it still has six more days for someone to add such references to halt the nomination process: AfD is quite generous in this way.

 * There's a difference between "may" and "should". Just seems a bit of a silly waste of time to nominate this when you have two very experienced editors working to bring it up to scratch. Good luck.  Tigerboy1966  18:10, 4 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep: The article seems to have undergone considerable development since it was nominated for deletion. It is not unreasonable to assume that it can and will be further developed.  Maybe an  tag might be an idea to hold off any further premature AfD nominations?  86.145.211.233 (talk) 13:06, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: Article has a number of references now to establish notability. --Bcp67 (talk) 08:54, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
