 * Keep We seem to be nearing a place in AfD's where "local coverage" means "Any news outlet in the same state". The Idaho Statesman is, by any reasonable evaluation, a WP:RS independent of the subject and the largest paper in Idaho and its article on the event is certainly significant.  It also has significant, independent RS coverage from the largest broadcast station in the state.  Dismissing these as "local" is like dismissing a story about the New York City mayor because all the coverage is in the New York Times and Bloomberg.  "Local coverage" is being twisted to carve out articles that qualify under WP:GNG, which this satisfies.  Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 03:10, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
