Powder Ridge

Non-notable ski resort. RS coverage is limited to snowfall reports, trips to the resort and trivial mentions. Nothing to show this is in any way a notable ski resort. TRAVELLINGCARI^{My story}_{Tell me yours} 03:27, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: good article, but needs clean up. Dwilso 03:30, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In what way is it a good article - its a sentence long. Fattyjwoods ^{(Push my button)} 03:36, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's what I was going to say. Did you comment in the right place, Dwilso? This is one sentence "Powder Ridge is a ski area in Kimball, Minnesota." an infobox and two external links. Given that paragraphs are at minimum three sentences, there is no article here and no evidence to proove it ever can grow to be one.

I think what they meant was "Good subject/article, bad revision/current incarnation of article". Celarnor ^{Talk to me} 04:43, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete. Only one really useful source is available for the subject. Celarnor ^{Talk to me} 05:02, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Non-notable ski area; wrong Powder Ridge altogether. KleenupKrew (talk) 12:03, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Very non-notable, lack of sources, and only one sentence of prose. Juliancolton ^Tropical ^Cyclone 13:53, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's basically a conveniently-located bump in the landscape north of Kimball, Minnesota that appears to get skiers from the St. Cloud, Minnesota area. I'm sure there are other reliable sources out there that mention its vertical elevation, number of trails, and number of terrain parks, but it doesn't qualify as a destination resort.
