 * The only 'keep' is not enough to provide a claim to notability for this drink. The 'delete's demonstrate that the consensus is clearly that this drink is not notable enough for inclusion on Wikipedia. --  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 02:20, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

Snowflake (cocktail)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Another non notable drink.

This one at least claims to have been created in the 1980s, but I don't see any references that would establish notability. Shadowjams (talk) 07:40, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per Shadowjams -- I can't find any independent sourcing. ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡ  bomb  07:58, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:GNG; just because it exists or is well-known in one city does not make it notable. We'll need very good sourcing for this to be kept. Bearian (talk) 15:43, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Although a few sources contain recipes for a cocktail called the snowflake, e.g. [1], [2], and [3], this is not "significant coverage" of the cocktail, and the information contained in this article, e.g. about a "John Ralls" who supposedly invented it, is completely unverifiable.

 * Delete: Fails WP:N. Joe Chill (talk)


 * "Keep: a) the entry provides facts about an actual drink; nothing stated is fictional; b) the primary utility of this section of Wikipedia seems to be users looking to learn about cocktails made from vodka and indeed recipes for actual vodka-based drinks. Given the facts and utility of the entry, it seems worthy of keeping.

 * Delete John Ralls? Can't find him in connection with Snowflakes (or snowflakes either). Peridon (talk) 22:25, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. I can't find any sources either. There may be a variety of cocktails called the Snowflake, but none of the recipes found by Glenfarclas match the one described in this article. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 23:39, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
