This article is about a festival that has yet to take place. A search for coverage about the festival turns up a couple of mentions [1], [2] but those are just mentions. There is no coverage in reliable sources to establish this festival's notability. Whpq (talk) 12:41, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete No significant reliable information seems to be available. At the present, this is perhaps a G11 speedy for promotional. DGG (talk) 01:53, 30 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello
I am not sure if this is the appropriate place to put the discussion of this page's deletion or not but it appears from the above text that it is.
Although the Equinox Festival has yet to take place it has generated a great deal of both major press publication and public online discussion. Forums such as Lashtal, Brainwashed, AllAboutJazz, Fortean Times, and many other have long, very extended reviews and discussions about the artists involved in the upcoming Equinox Festival. It has been previewed in Jazzwise magazine, Wire magazine, the Guardian, Time Out London, Strange Attractor, Decider, Evolver, Reality Sandwich and many others. Even a cursory google search indicates a massive amount of public awareness to the festival.
Not sure why the page was deleted. Even as of the deletion date a google search revealed hundreds of websites listing discussions and previews of the festival. Several UK based print magazines have run articles on the festival, as well as the London cities Camden Council site that sponsors the festival. How much more coverave is needed to make the festival "notable"?
