Free Press Summer Fest

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I didn't know we reprint festival programs. It might or might not be possible to produce a satisfactory article, but this sort of content in normally considered promotional. If it weren't out of my field, I'd have listed it for G11, speedy.  DGG ( talk ) 23:35, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep - I base my keep !vote simply on the sources that I found here and here. There are plenty of sources out there to support WP:GNG and I hate to see articles deleted simply based on being promotional. With that aside, the "weak" has to do EVERYTHING with promotion. An article on the topic is likely to survive, but not in its current form. As such, I would recommend stripping the article to a stub if it survives AfD and use the WP:RS available instead of leaving the article, like DGG said, a reprint of a festival flyer. --FoolMeOnce2Times (talk) 16:49, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Ugh. Keep but trim significantly, or merge to Free Press Houston (it's already mentioned there). The schedule definitely needs to go, but there's a core of notability in an event attended by 80,000 people. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  04:38, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - I'm seeing sufficient coverage for a GNG pass, such as THIS and THAT from the Houston Chronicle, or THE OTHER THING from station KHOU. South-by-Southwest it ain't, but it is bigger than a breadbasket and considering the ultra-low bar we regularly allow for underground music (rightfully, in my view), a big, multi-year, widely cover mainstream festival like this one should be an easy call...

 * Ha, ha, nice Freudian slip for the festival with $350 tickets. I'll leave it. Carrite (talk) 16:13, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
