User:Mike Rosoft prodded this article as "No evidence of notability, minor local event", I endorsed it, saying there were not enough resources, but IP just removed it. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 10:54, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Evidence of non-trivial coverage in reliable third-party sources. Eliteimp (talk) 12:06, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - This is a significant cultural event that occurs in Detroit twice a year. Most recently it had 10,000 people in attendance. Please see the following articles.

http://www.detnews.com/article/20100626/METRO/6260345/1409/METRO http://www.freep.com/article/20100626/NEWS05/6260329/Jobbie-Nooner-party-gets-boost http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474978328103 http://www.providingnews.com/jobbie-nooner-2010-a-party-to-remember.html

This should have a place on the Wikipedia website. Please do not delete.

Keep - This does have reliable 3rd party sources. Here are a couple more links to add to the evidence. http://www.merinews.com/article/jobbie-nooner-2010-date-history-pictures-and-route-details/15824363.shtml http://www.mlive.com/entertainment/detroit/index.ssf/2010/06/jobbie_nooner_2010_partygoers.html
~~Keep~~ - This was a huge event this year. I wonder how big it will be next year. It deserves a place on Wikipedia, I hope it doesn't get deleted. As the person stated above this is an important event that occurs in Michigan twice a year. The articles above and and the references attached to this article should be sufficient evidence of this event. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.129.87.3 (talk) 16:50, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

One opinion per person, please. TN X Man 18:24, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Large amount of local coverage and photography; getting mentions in national wire services: http://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2010/06/26/Mich-may-toughen-law-on-drunken-boating/UPI-51191277590160/ Worthwhile as a reference item inasmuch as it's hard to figure out what the event is from the name alone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.219.145.98 (talk) 03:10, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Searched and did find some reliable sources, considering withdrawing, but not yet as I would like to see first consensus towards keep before withdrawing. Also to the IPs, can you explain why and how it deserves an article on Wikipedia. While your arguments are correct, you may need to explain further. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 09:57, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps you could explain why and how you arrived at the decision to list it, given that your "reason" was "not enough resources" when clearly there are. Did you even look first? Eliteimp (talk) 19:37, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I withdraw this AfD. Only AfD'd as IP removed the PROD, good arguments. I don't want to close my own AfD as withdrawn as it might not be correct. Thanks. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 22:49, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
