Stevie Awards
AfDs for this article:


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

Unnotable business awards (according to the article itself, "approximately 30-40% of entries receive an award"). A few newspaper articles, but otherwise it seems only recipients give a damn. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:46, 1 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete. "There are entry fees in seven of the Stevie Awards competitions, and winner fees in two. Entry fees for a Stevie in 2003 ranged from $200 to $400. As of 2023, entry fees range up to $600. There is an additional fee for attending the optional awards ceremony." This suggests to me that it is a money-making scheme. Athel cb (talk) 08:45, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

 * I'm leaning towards Keep. Agreed, awards you have to pay to win aren't worth having, in my opinion, and are just a type of PR. However, to delete on that basis is WP:IDONTLIKEIT. However: there is some coverage from reliable, independent publications i.e. New York Times, Washington Post, New York Post; the awards have been around a long time; many businesses seem to think it is worth winnning (based on the number of press releases from companies that have 'won' one); Wikipedia is one of the few sources where readers can find out about the true nature of the awards.

 * Delete Extremely weak sourcing, no perceived notability. And Adoil Descended (talk) 13:32, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete There are 16 sources in the article, of which 13 are published on the company's website. Of the remaining 3, this in the NY Post relies entirely on information and quotes from sources related to the company, likewise this in the NYT relies also on information provided by sources related to the company and finally this in HighBeam is a Press Release. None of the sources contain any in-depth "Independent Content"], fails GNG/NCORP. [[User:HighKing| HighKing++ 17:14, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
