Non-notable news site referenced a whopping total of 2 times in either of the stated news outlets, no coverage except for primary sources and spam, created by, surprise, an SPA! CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 17:50, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I must correct Chrissymad, it's used as a passing source three times - once by The Sun and twice by The Metro. I was pondering deleting it myself so had a look to see if the claims made were credible and significant - I'm not at all satisfied they are but it's on the threshold, certainly, so went off to do something else and came back to see DGG had declined. It's not notable, I'm afraid but I suppose AfD is the place to agree that, rather than a CSD nomination. Nick (talk) 17:54, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well, to be fair... I was the one who applied the CSD tag. After giving it some more thought, I decided that the article wasn't eligible for A7 and removed it, but then added it back following a discussion with others who believed it not to contain a credible claim of significance... I let myself flip-flop and I should not have done that. I think the statement about being referenced by The Sun and Metro does push it into the "CSS realm" and barely so. I feel better that the discussion is here :-) ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 18:02, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Being linked a couple of times doesn't address WP:GNG notability criteria. Article was created by one of several SPA accounts. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 20:43, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Couldn't find any coverage proving notability. Enterprisey (talk!) 05:44, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
