The Cherry Street Tavern

Does not meet WP:NCORP notability. It's just a bar in Philadelphia. The fact that a few famous people have gone there, doesn't give it notability. Rusf10 (talk) 06:49, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep. It is indeed a bar in Philadelphia, but it is one that has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources, and therefore meets Wikipedia's criteria for notability. Today I added references to some of that coverage; I'll add more when time permits. Others are, of course, welcome to do the same. TypoBoy (talk) 02:51, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Does not meet WP:AUD, it has not been covered by sources outside of Philadelphia.--Rusf10 (talk) 16:03, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
 * WP:AUD says "at least one regional, statewide, provincial, national, or international source is necessary". The 2005 profile by Jennifer Hans in the Courier-Post satisfies that. The Courier-Post is a New Jersey newspaper, so it's a regional, rather than local, source. TypoBoy (talk) 20:35, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
 * You've got to be kidding? or you're just bad at geography. All that separates Philadelphia and New Jersey is a river. Some unknown newspaper a few miles away in Cherry Hill is not a regional source.--Rusf10 (talk) 23:26, 10 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Cherry Hill, the home of the Courier-Post, is separated from Philadelphia by that river (which is also a state boundary), but also by a number of other municipalities including Pennsauken, Merchantville, Collingswood, Haddon Township, Haddonfield, Audubon, Oaklyn, Gloucester City, and Camden (the 12th-largest city in New Jersey). They're distinct localities within the same region.


 * Your unfamiliarity with the Courier-Post is of no relevance. It's New Jersey's fifth-largest newspaper, and it's a century and a half old.


 * You seem to be trying to change Wikipedia's criteria for notability. I'm willing to take part in that discussion, but this isn't the place for it. TypoBoy (talk) 12:09, 11 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep It is notable. The article doesn't do the location justice and should be expanded. --evrik (talk) 14:43, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Meets GNG with sources in the article. Not that it matters, but here is a source from outside Philly . ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs )~ 17:03, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
 * again same small newspaper with low circulation from a town that is only a few miles away.--Rusf10 (talk) 23:28, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
