Pillow Fight League[edit]

AfDs for this article:

Organization is non-notable organization referenced in single ESPN article; it masquerades as a "sports league"; and it was previously removed due to both nonsense and notability issues Mhking (talk) 17:42, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - By the time the article was nominated for AfD, it contained citations from ESPN, the New York Times, and Reuters. To so quickly dismiss it as non-notable at this time seems like a mistake. The event has garnered enough press to clearly alleviate the earlier concerns that the previous versions of the article (now restored and available in the history) were actually nonsense (although notability was a good deal more iffy at the time). MrZaius^talk 17:45, 10 February 2009 (UTC) PS: 73 other news sources are also available at this time including multiple sources about the sale of television rights to reality TV producers.[reply]
Keep- It looks incredibly silly, but it does have several sources which indicate notability. Umbralcorax (talk) 17:53, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: international reliable source coverage easily satisfies the general notability guideline of WP:N and WP:CORP. Baileypalblue (talk) 18:52, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I disagree with the rationale for the article being present. I feel that it is non-encyclopedic, and that your additions have not salvaged that notion. So despite your request that I remove my AfD, I will allow the AfD request to move forward. --Mhking (talk) 01:46, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough - Just wanted to make sure you saw the intervening edits. MrZaius^talk 02:12, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: As Umbralcorax said, it looks silly, but it also seems notable enough to warrant inclusion. jenuk1985 (talk) 06:07, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It may be silly, but so's Al Gore (not POV there are sources :D) and he's notable too. (Irrelevant to AfD, but "damage a trois" is a great phrase). - Ddawkins73 (talk) 15:48, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
