Non-notable publication - website indicates it isn't a newspaper per se, it's more of an advertising medium for the Fredericton area. PK T(alk) 18:34, 2 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete a non-notable local paper.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:49, 7 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Every local newspaper is not automatically entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because it exists — it needs to demonstrate and reliably source a claim of notability that would pass WP:NMEDIA. But that's not present here, and I can't any evidence that improvement is possible at all. Creator's rationale for declining a prod attempt in 2015, "Basically, just want to list Freddy Plus as a paper being produced in Fredericton", is not a valid reason to keep it — our role is not to be a comprehensive directory of everything that exists, but to maintain properly sourced articles about things that satisfy our notability standards. No objection to having it listed in Media in Fredericton, but nothing here qualifies it for a standalone article. Bearcat (talk) 16:53, 10 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
