 * Delete Wikipedia is drowining in articles sourced only to the subject's own website, we need to find a way to fix this now. If it is still a problem when 2022 starts things will truly reach a level of unacceptability. John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:58, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Plenty of hits in ProQuest and Google News. It was a "Top Pick" in The Telegraph's list of Britain's 100 greatest music festivals Piecesofuk (talk) 18:33, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. The nominator doesn't state whether or where they looked for coverage. The other delete !vote (as usual) lacks any valid argument for deletion. There is quite a bit of coverage around, albeit fairly local, e.g., , , , , , . I can't see the Telegraph coverage linked above, but I think there's enough to support an article. --Michig (talk) 10:10, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Expanded a bit using the sources above and additional research. Needs a page move to "Purbeck Valley Folk Festival", which I won't do unless it's kept. Is it notable? Borderline, I think; there's plenty of coverage, but it's almost all very local; there is more I haven't examined closely, including a paper: https://doi.org/10.1108/IJEFM-09-2015-0039. —&#8239; The Earwig (talk) 02:25, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
