It's been tagged as no sources since 2017, and an additional search of a local news database also had no hits. Fails WP:SIGCOV. ~ฅ(ↀωↀ=)neko-channyan 15:58, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. What do You think about this piece? --Ouro (blah blah) 17:15, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for finding something, but it looks like a single sentence about the publishing company, the rest is about an unrelated book the publisher wrote. I think that falls under 'trivial passing mention.' ~ฅ(ↀωↀ=)neko-channyan 17:48, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I altered my search parameters and found this interview with a long-standing blog, a mention here and another mention in the same publication I first found. None of these are awesome, but maybe together they could count for something? --Ouro (blah blah) 17:58, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just noticed that the article contradicts itself as to the date of the first publication. --Ouro (blah blah) 17:59, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm starting to think it would make more sense to make an entry focused on Mike Savage instead and just redirect this to a section on the publishing company, since he looks pretty prolific. --~ฅ(ↀωↀ=)neko-channyan 20:24, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I followed Your train of thought, but in all honesty thoroughly searching for reviews of his Alphonse 'Dave' Davecki series of superior mystery book that seem to follow a sort of series brought up a total of zip reviews other than the mentions I have already found. While he may be prolific there's nothing going for that except for the blurbs in his books. What You found is actually from his own book, from his own publishing house, so isn't exactly a reliable source for WP. Maybe You'll have better luck or will just plain find something. --Ouro (blah blah) 07:01, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Independent coverage found so far falls well short of WP:ORGDEPTH required under NCORP. Yes, there's mentions in blogs but no WP:SIGCOV of the business, Savage Press. Rupples (talk) 19:52, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: the only article I found with information about the company was "Small publishers survive, but don't thrive in Duluth, Minn." in 2004 (ProQuest 462151451) but it relies on Mike Savage's comments. S0091 (talk) 17:08, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
