Not notable, can't verify to satisfy WP:N. Was PRODed, creator removed prod with explanation "While SeeTalkGrow is a new conference (just announced in February, and thus, doesn't have much press coverage yet) there are notable professional guests appearing on the show, many of whom are included on Wikipedia and respected in their industries. This should develop objective press coverage over time, which will naturally lead to a more full reference list." which sums it up, that it doesn't have sources. The only source is an article written on a blog (otherwise ok) that is involved with the event, making it a primary source. Other sources are twitter, myspace, facebook, etc. WP:TOOSOON, there are lots of these festivals, most aren't notable, no reason to assume this will be either.

To contradict the creator, none of the "notable professional guests" listed have articles here. Assuming their statement was a good faith error. Dennis Brown (talk) 11:57, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification A number of the guests listed on the conference website are either on Wikipedia, or the organisations they represent are. CandleOfFaith (talk) 13:15, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete Has one reference and it is of the type needed for wp:notability, but that is insufficient. This is basically a web idea that someone is trying to get launched. North8000 (talk) 12:06, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In case I didn't make it clear before, that one article is written by the person who is creating the event, so it is a primary link. Perfectly fine for giving info, useless to establish notability. It is no different than a link to the "official website" in this respect. Dennis Brown (talk) 12:12, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, the deprodding rationale is actually a good deletion rationale. Nyttend (talk) 12:24, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
