Proctail

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Alcoholic drink that fails notability criteria. A search for sources on "Proctail", "Proctail drink", and "Proctail cocktail" turned up no reliable, independent sources to establish that this meets notability criteria. Prod was contested on the grounds that it exists, but existence does not mean notability. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 22:04, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Kuyabribri, Thank you for your feedback. I have included two references, including a maxim magazine article, discussing the cocktail. This should be sufficent evidence of notarity. The notability is light, as this is a newer drinking phenomenon, however light notability is notability nonetheless. I ask that you please remove the deletion. -crwcochran 22:21, 20 December 2011
 * I couldn't see anything mentioning "Proctail" in the Maxim link provided, and even if it was, that does not constitute significant coverage and it may not even be a reliable source. The country club is definitely not an independent source, because that it is where this drink was purportedly invented. Wikipedia is not here to spread the word about the newest up-and-coming thing; it only covers what has already been covered in reliable sources. I will not withdraw this nomination but will defer to community consensus as to whether the article should be kept or deleted. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 22:31, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment by Tonywalton Talk I've removed the speedy tag as this is undergoing AfD, however
 * Delete as nn. This doesn't appear to be notable as a cocktail; as 7 says there appear to be no notable references under the given name, and searches for cocktails made from vodka and pineapple turn up no matches under this name. Tonywalton Talk 01:09, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
