Granville Island Water Taxi Services

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A closed down water taxi service. One contributor. No sourcing to showcase long lasting notability after business closing, and notability was weak originally. Hooper (talk) 03:36, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - Organization was subject of several articles in reliable sources during its existence, some of which are already included in the article citations. WP:NTEMP suggests, "Notability is not temporary.", and as such it does not need to have ongoing coverage. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 03:59, 24 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment - as far as I can tell, this is a WP:POINTy nomination. CV (the article creator) put a speedy tag on an article that Hooper (the nommer) created, so Hooper went through CV's history and prodded or afded half a dozen articles that CV had created. Kevin (talk) 06:05, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Not correct. Half a dozen = three, all of people/things only of local prominence.  I've already discussed how I came across the articles.  It isn't Pointy at all.  Furthermore, the sources are all outdated.  And though Notability may not be temporary, it is not permanent either. Hooper (talk) 12:40, 24 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep. There's a lot of sourcing there for such a short article, and several of the sources appear to focus on the subject. So we keep on the merits. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 12:20, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 11:07, 25 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Speedy keep. The subject is notable and the article is well-sourced. It looks like this was a bad-faith nomination per WP:REVENGE; plus, the nominator has apparently retired.  Erpert  Who is this guy? 23:58, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
