IBLA International Competition

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

"a Sicilian music competition". No references outside its own website in external links (note: single footnote to a NYT article seems to be a red herring, as that article doesn't mention this competition) since the article was created over 15 years ago. My BEFORE does not suggest this event meets WP:GNG or (failed but useful as a sanity test) WP:NAWARD. There are few mentions in passing that confirm this event exists, but nothing to suggest it is important enough to merit an encyclopedic article. No Italian interwiki. Lastly, the text in the article reads like it was copied from the organization's marketing brochure: " the IBLA Foundation has been dedicated to discovering new talent from around the world. ... Throughout the years the IBLA Grand Prize winners have received the opportunity to be presented in such prestigious venues... IBLA winners have received worldwide critical acclaim with praises ... " Etc. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 07:44, 24 August 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 06:50, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
