Salazar Awards

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Semi-advertorialized article about a regional graphic design award, not properly sourced as passing notability criteria for events. As always, events are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to be shown to pass WP:GNG on third-party media coverage about them -- but this is "referenced" entirely to the organization's own self-published content about itself, with absolutely no evidence of third-party attention shown at all. It also warrants note that this was a conflict of interest from the start, as the article creator's username of "Gdcbc" corresponds letter-for-letter to the name of the organization that presents this award, the Graphic Designers of Canada, British Columbia. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt it from having to pass GNG on its sourceability. Bearcat (talk) 20:16, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete: Appears to be a minor award. There are no citations on the page and I can't find any mentions of this in .ca websites, besides a few homepages for the winners and some design schools. Oaktree b (talk) 22:40, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge/redirect to Design Professionals of Canada if this is really an award they give. Sourcing is insufficient to establish notability. --Here2rewrite (talk) 19:54, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
