Surf Taco

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non notable local restaurant chain. The article has languished for 4 years as nothing more than a promotion. Geoff Who, me?  21:42, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete Looks like WP:ARTSPAM. If there is a level of notability, add the material to the article with valid references. --Stormbay (talk) 22:21, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - Not artspam, but doesn't meet N or GNG. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 13:39, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - It just needs to be rewritten to be less promotional and use reliable sources. They might not be tons and tons, but there are multiple including this New York Times article, one in Restaurant Owner, this Red Bank, New Jersey new source, if we're feeling like supporting the future of journalism, here is an article from a high school newspaper, an article from a Jackson, New Jersey news source here and just a bit more digging...

 * Keep per the multiple sources located by SarahStierch, thank you. I would also like to go on record as saying this does not look like WP:ARTSPAM, or any sort of spam to me.  It does however look like a pretty darn bad article, as far as they go here, but that's something which will improve over time, hopefully sooner rather than later.

 * Keep - Meets WP:CORPDEPTH per sources available about this restaurant chain. Northamerica1000(talk) 10:45, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
