Dagwoods[edit]

non-notable company. Speedy declined per "check google news", which I've done and found diddly-squat. Ironholds (talk) 14:55, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – at this time. Just not enough coverage to warrant inclusion at this time, as shown here, [1]. Comes across as any local sandwich shop would, and hopefully we are not becoming a directory of local eateries. Thanks. ShoesssS ^Talk 15:10, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Note - If deleted, this title should probably redirect to the dabpage Dagwood. — LinguistAtLarge • Talk 19:33, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment In case anyone is wondering (as I was), this restaurant chain is unrelated to Dagwood's Sandwich Shoppes, which are named after the comic strip character and are probably notable: [2]. Zagalejo^^^ 19:59, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Nominator didn't do a proper google search. He could have done "Dagwoods Montreal" and it would have shown a list. And trust me, it's quite delicious. But how it prepares the subs is what differs from Subway and Quiznos. --Mixwell!^Talk 04:05, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- That first point is a possibly valid concern, can you post some possible refs here? However, the two other points are too subjective to even be considered, sort of ILIKEIT arguements.--Ipatrol (talk) 15:42, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I did do a search under "Dagwoods Montreal", as shown here [3]. Sorry to say, only one article, and one article does not denote notability. ShoesssS ^Talk 17:09, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

'Re-Comment" "Dagwoods"%20Fast%20Food%20Montreal&sa=N&hl=en&tab=nw shows plenty of results. There's a Flickr research, some critics... --Mixwell!^Talk 21:19, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Before Ursup was done, it was created on User:Cream. --Mixwell!^Talk 23:53, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Sorry, your link didn't work, nothing shows at all. Two strikes. Count now 0-2. However, takes three strikes to call you out :-). ShoesssS ^Talk 00:22, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's tricky to type URLs with parameters in them. I'm pretty sure that what he meant to type is this: Google search for "Dagwoods" Fast Food Montreal -- Soap ^Talk/_{Contributions} 00:33, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent. That brings up about 20 sources verifying that they exist, something off flickr and, er.. us. Ironholds (talk) 00:36, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also the only news relases from Dagwoods were a statement that they didn'T have any Maple Leaf products that were contaminated by Listeria and a article in The Gazette explaining how they work and why they exist. [4] --Mixwell!^Talk 23:55, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Repeated failure to establish notability, a quick search through some Montreal newspapers turns up little more than brief reviews and passing mentions.--Ipatrol (talk) 04:31, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Non-notable, per google searches etc. Chzz ► 16:06, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
