Local Live

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Seems to be a locally produced music competition aired on a regional public-access cable channel. Fails WP:GNG, no sources listed, cannot find any coverage, only hits are their own facebook, etc. &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;   &#9743;(talk)  03:20, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep I'm not sure it fails WP:GNG. It has some secondary sources that, while not all explicitly about the topic, give it more than a trivial mention. I say weak because, in spite of that, Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information and it may be more appropriate to include in another article, rather than as its own article, but I'm not familiar with the topic, most of its links are red, and so I doubt that's a likely possibility. I side with keep because it may be notable, and, if there is an article it can be merged with in the future, I think we can revisit it as a merger, but delete seems a little over-the-top at the moment.

 * Keep. Too early in article's life to warrant deletion. Keep for now, but might revisit this discussion if article is not expanded. Suttungr (talk) 19:01, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources provided by. For example, this article from Orillia Packet says: "Expanding from its Barrie-based roots, Local Live, Simcoe County’s idol-style competition, is on the hunt for talented local musicians who write and perform their own material. For the past two years, Local Live, now in its fifth season, has aired on Rogers TV in Barrie. The fifth season will be aired across Simcoe County in Orillia, Barrie, Collingwood, Alliston, Borden and Midland. “Because … we’re expanding and we’re putting it on all the different stations across Simcoe County … we thought it would be important to actually reach out to the cities and go to the individual cities,” said show host and creator Steve Major. Local Live V is holding an open audition in the Orillia Opera House’s Studio Theatre Oct. 5 beginning at 10 a.m. Local Live is loosely based on the TV talent shows American Idol and The X Factor." This is detailed and encyclopedic information about Local Live that "addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content" (from Notability's definition of "significant coverage"). There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Local Live to pass Notability, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

 * Keep – Meets WP:GNG. Source examples include:, , , , , . North America1000 09:59, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Still no evidence of more than merely local significance. The article is written as if it were of wide significance in Canada, but the references do not support that. DGG (at NYPL) -- reply here 20:00, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
