Fails the WP:AUD requirement of WP:ORG since all sources are local. A truly notable organization would have coverage outside of the local area. The previous AFD resulted in no consensus. Rusf10 (talk) 06:05, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep The article looks fine and coverage in sources such as the Genovese book is adequate to demonstrate notability. Andrew D. (talk) 11:40, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep concur with Andrew D.Djflem (talk) 12:54, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep The strictest relevant requirement of WP:AUD is "at least one regional, statewide, provincial, national, or international source is necessary". Of 15 current references at least NJ101.5, the Genovese book, njcurling.org, NJTV (in External links) and others cover the state. The Hi's Eye and North Jersey articles are at least regional and provide non-trivial reference. Zomno (talk) 18:21, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
 * First of all the Genovese book is essentially a travel guide, something Wikipedia is not (see WP:NOTTRAVEL). The rest of the sources are local to New Jersey. It also does not meet the curling guidelines (see WP:CURLING/AG)--Rusf10 (talk) 22:49, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
 * N/A: Where does it say in the cited policy (An article on Paris should mention landmarks, such as the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre, but not the telephone number or street address of the "best" restaurants, nor the current price of a café au lait on the Champs-Élysées. Wikipedia is not the place to recreate content more suited to entries in hotel or culinary guides, travelogues, and the like. Notable locations may meet the inclusion criteria, but the resulting articles need not include every tourist attraction, restaurant, hotel or venue, etc. While travel guides for a city will often mention distant attractions, a Wikipedia article for a city should only list those that are actually in the city. If you do wish to help write a travel guide, your contributions would be welcome at our sister project, Wikivoyage.) that travel guides cannot be used as references? It doesn't.Djflem (talk) 09:27, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
