Sloppy Joe's Bar, Havana

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Article was deproded by article creator and re-filled with POV non-sourced rumour. Original issue still exists. It appears to be a non-notable bar, with no reliable source references to establish notability. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 16:17, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Does have several mentions in Google Books and it is notable through the Hemingway connection and it inspired the name of the same named bar in Key West. I agree the article needs work to remove POV and needs sources (which can be found on Gbooks) but this should be fixed through regular editing. SpeakFree (talk)(contribs) 18:21, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep Appears to be a historic, notable establishment. --MelanieN (talk) 01:35, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I just added several references to the article. The Los Angeles Times called it "one of the most famous bars in the world" with "almost the status of a shrine." --MelanieN (talk) 02:02, 1 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep per above reasoning. Sources currently provided are sufficient to meet notability guidelines. Tinton5 (talk) 02:13, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep historical and notable. Jarvis Sherbourne (talk) 17:15, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
