WildClaw Theatre Company

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The subject appears to fail WP:N. Unable to find sources beyond the company's own releases and some local media coverage. Nothing to indicate notability outside of local theatre scene. Yunshui (talk) 14:08, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Neutral It only takes a few good sources to create a decent start class article. One like this from the Chicago Tribune gives you an RS from an important publication for starters.  The article has a couple decent sources. Since the theater is covered by Time Out (company) the place has some notability.  However, no notable actors are mentioned on the article and Chicago has a bunch of theater companies that have proven to be fertile grounds for acting talent. I am not sure which way I want to go on this one.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 21:44, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Somewhat weaker delete I'll admit, I didn't realise the Tribune had such a wide circulation - definitely a regional source rather than a local one, as I at first thought. I will try and incorporate some of the material therein into the article either later today or tomorrow, and see if it looks any better. Still unconvinced of notability, but I'll grant it could maybe be shuffled up to start-class... Yunshui (talk) 09:22, 15 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Having added what pertinent information I can from the Tribune article, I'm still unconvinced this passes WP:N. Although the Tribune article is extensive, I've found little factual information which contributes to the Wikipedia page Yunshui (talk) 14:08, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - I remain unconvinced about the notability of this recently formed theatre. Fails WP:ORG. TerriersFan (talk) 22:31, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
