Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Colchester Film Festival

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was merge to Colchester#Culture. I like the merge option for this one - the sourcing didn't quite lead me to believe this subject is independently notable outside the region in which it serves.

Thank you everyone for participating and assuming good faith. If you disagree with this decision, please take your objections and concerns to Deletion Review instead of my talk page. Thanks again and happy holidays! Missvain (talk) 23:51, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. Gnews comes up with hits merely confirming films that have featured. LibStar (talk) 01:11, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I have added independent reliable sources to the article. It passes WP:GNG. Don't rely just on Gnews! Richard Nevell (talk) 18:08, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep sources added by Richard Nevell establish notability. NemesisAT (talk) 11:18, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- They don't really, though, do they?—S Marshall T/C 03:23, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Colchester#Culture. There's not enough reliably sourced material for a separate article.—S Marshall T/C 03:23, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge (selectively) and redirect to Colchester#Culture as suggested by S Marshall. For me, the sourcing is a bit borderline though not conclusively sufficient enough to assert notability without question, so i'd err with a (weak) merge/redirect (if that's even a thing). Some content is useful so i'd suggest merging the lead paragraph and redirecting to that. There may be scope to reopening the article in future.
