Krieger's Sports Grill

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable restaurant chain, tagged as failing GNG since February 2013, and orphaned since November 2006. Distinct lack of any independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources, so WP:GNG and WP:ORG are not satisified. Luke no 94 (tell Luke off here) 16:49, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. Google News has a few subscription-only hits, but they seem to be from local newspapers.  I don't see any national coverage, and the article itself states that this is primarily a local chain. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:06, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Articles like this look like substantial coverage in reliable independent sources. St. Louis is a pretty substantial market and the restaurant has operated in multiple states. I think it's enough. Candleabracadabra (talk) 04:24, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
 * So one tiny, routine local source is enough? Really? Are you serious? Luke no 94  (tell Luke off here) 09:10, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I said stories like that one are substantial. A Goole News search shows numerous stories like that one with substantial coverage. Yes, I'm serious. The substantial coverage in reliable independent sources establishes notability. St. Louis is a city. The sources aren't small rural papers. Candleabracadabra (talk) 10:43, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Whether it is a city or not is irrelevant; it's still a local paper giving local coverage. And the story you presented was neither substantial nor non-routine in the slightest. Basically everything you list in that Google News search is routine, or from local papers, or very minor (usually a mixture of the three). GNG and ORG are not even close to being satisfied.

 * Delete - Supporting sources are passing mentions, local coverage, and routine announcements of location openings, which don't provide evidence of notability and fail WP:CORPDEPTH. Ibadibam (talk) 18:14, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. Notability sorely lacking.
