Folsom Public Library
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Although this article does cite two newspaper articles, it does not assert that there is anything notable about the subject. The articles are about the local politics surrounding funding to expand the library, not about the library itself. It is hard to imagine that this stub could be built into a respectable encyclopedia article. ike9898 (talk) 17:01, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep: passes WP:N. South Bay    (talk) 20:23, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Nominator here: I didn't realize this article had a deletion discussion less than 6 months ago with consensus to keep. I move that this AfD be speedily closed (and kept) as I nominated it without checking the history carefully enough, and there's no reason to believe anything has changed since the last nomination. ike9898 (talk) 20:46, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge There is nothing to prevent a merge with articles on other libraries in that county. What has happened since the last nom is that most of the content was properly removed as copyvio, and I dont think there's enough left to warrant a separate article. DGG (talk) 00:08, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge agree with DGG, there's no evidence of independent notability. There are ghits and news hits, they appear limited to the following: 1) library closure notifications 2) events at the library and 3) voting issues, none of which establish notability for the library.

 * Do local sources count for WP:N or not? anyway merging sounds good. TheWilyFox (talk) 09:31, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge per above. The Folsom Public Library would have been immortalized in song, if "I checked out a book in Reno..." had worked as a lyric.  Mandsford (talk) 23:22, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
