Fries BBQ & Grill[edit]
Local Iowa City restaurant that closed in the late '90s. As I feel that it fails WP:CORP, I vote delete. Andy Saunders 18:11, 14 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as non-notable. The article doesn't tell me anything to counter that assessment. Sounds like any other restaurant. --Kinu t/c 19:40, 14 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Kinu. Catamorphism 20:16, 14 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Wow. I am the author, and this is the first thing I've ever written here. I had no idea that as soon as I posted it that users would be circling like sharks trying to take me down. Can It be notable for the network of people who used to work or eat there, and, well, will enjoy reading the article? I don't know what to say. :( — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joegoodfriend (talk • contribs)

Keep(Vote withdrawn): Non-notable, but a pretty decent article for someone's first try. Peter Grey 18:45, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Wikipedia is about creating an encyclopedia, not improving contributors' self-esteem. Whether this was the author's first article or their 1000th shouldn't matter here. Catamorphism 05:44, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Just trying to lighten the mood, since the article clearly fails notability and probably nothing can save it. Peter Grey 05:58, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, not notable. I went to the University of Iowa and never even heard of that place. --Iowahwyman 00:19, 19 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
