The Parker Pie Co.

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Needs the publicity. Small business. "Yankee" magazine is notoriously indiscriminate about nominations. Having said that, it is not a bad place to have pizza. It is unique, but the line needs to be drawn somewhere. Student7 (talk) 16:43, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete - In order to meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria, there needs to be significant coverage in independent reliable sources. The sources present in the article fails on being significant coverage.  The coverage I am available to find is local like this.  Insufficient to establish notability. -- Whpq (talk) 15:58, 11 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep. Sources offered in the article are basically routine coverage of opening a new location and some trivial mentions. Searching Google books, however, turned up non-trivial mentions in travel guides (1 and 2).  These aren't wonderful source but I would accept them meeting our requirement for multiple reliable independent secondary sources per WP:GNG.  Since we decide notability based on available sources, not merely what's been cited, I !vote to keep.  Msnicki (talk) 20:41, 11 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete - The citation used in the article simply do not meet the standards of WP:CORPDEPTH, being reviews, trivial mention or other similar articles. Further, travel guides do not confer notability because they are only directories of local attractions, a violation of WP:Not. --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 06:34, 14 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Nothing in the guidelines disallows the use of travel guides to establish notability. We apply the same tests to travel guides as we do to any source, asking that it be reliable, independent and secondary.  Travel guides may contain a certain amount of simple directory information, e.g., a list of shops with addresses and phone numbers and little else.  But the sources I cited do more than that.  They have not merely added the subject to a long list.  They've provided the authors' independent thoughts on the subject.  That makes them WP:SECONDARY and perfectly acceptable for establishing notability.  Msnicki (talk) 06:44, 14 July 2014 (UTC)


 * In this case, the travel guide entries presented are brief, and for me, don't reach the level of significant coverage. -- Whpq (talk) 02:10, 15 July 2014 (UTC)
