Jersey Shore Arts Center

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non notable arts center with no reliable sources to establish notability. Only brief mentions are listed. Tinton5 (talk) 01:45, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment. I don't agree with the stated factual premise for the nomination: the article cites a very good and reliable source, a 2000 New York Times article that discusses the genesis of this institution substantively and at considerable length. The problem is that, so far, this is the only source provided. Newspapers.com turns up a 2003 article about the Arts Center in the Asbury Park Press, which is unfortunately a paper not included in the Wikipedia access program so I can't read the whole article; and here's a 2013 article from The Coaster, a weekly. --Arxiloxos (talk) 04:06, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep / Expand / Improve as points out, the source from The New York Times is a rather strong source that is clearly about the Jersey Shore Arts Center; The problem is that it's the only source in the article that's backing the claim of notability. With the additional sources available, the article can be improved, as the current version needs a great deal of work. Alansohn (talk) 13:37, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
