Gawad Plaridel Award

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This university department award does not appear to be notable outside the university. Being a recipient of the award may make that recipient notable, and the person for whom it is named may be notable, but the award itself has not attracted the non-trivial attention of reliable independent sources. Google Books shows 6 hits, five of them misdirected ones, one mentioning someone as a winner of the award. KDS4444 (talk) 23:06, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Part of this deletion argument seems nonsensical to me: how can an award "make that recipient notable" yet somehow not be notable enough for its own article? Furthermore, the reliance on Google Books refs seems curious, when there are abundant news refs as well, such as this one. Anyway, a Gnews search reveals enough that the award merits an article, I should say. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 00:56, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep there's a lot of mentions of this awards in reliable sources. There's many articles that are focused on the winners of this award, and they're about multiple people in multiple years. This wealth of coverage convinces me that the award is notable. ArchieOof (talk) 22:53, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep. Appears a significant enough award to be covered and there are plenty of sources available. --Michig (talk) 06:29, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. References to sources have been added, the award easily meets GNG as a notable national award. Drop "Award" and search for . — Sam Sailor 18:20, 5 September 2016 (UTC)
