The Tenderloins[edit]

Declined speedy. A notability assertion is present (won the $100,000 grand prize in the NBC “It’s Your Show” competition), but cannot be referenced by anything other than the show's own website. Delete. Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 14:31, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

~~Weak~~ Keep - The contest's page (It's Your Show) proves that the user JamesSMurray submitted a video called Time Thugs and that the video won the $100000 prize. I believe the page is reliable and James Murray is a member of the comedy group. A blog post on Carson Daly's official blog (at least at the time) on a website owned by NBC states that The Tenderloins created the movie. It's sort of convoluted but I think that's enough info to show that The Tenderloins made the video and won the contest. I also think that the award is incredibly notable but I feel that the amount at least warrants a weak keep. I could probably be easily convinced otherwise.

After MQS's edits, I've changed my !vote to a keep. Good work MQS. OlYeller^Talktome 16:31, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relist rationale - No additional discussion took place during first relist. --Darkwind (talk) 00:06, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Think we should ask an involved projects? As someone who !voted, I don't want to be accused of canvassing. OlYeller^Talktome 00:33, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've listed it in a few additional WP:DELSORT categories, let's see if that helps. --Darkwind (talk) 05:21, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per the article's assertions of a $1000,000 award and of a pilot for Spike TV have now been sourced in Staten Island Advance. I have had some success in searching for sources, but have been incredibly handicapped by the group's choice of name being such a common term... being an area in San Francisco and a cut of meat. Yikes. But I did have some luck. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 09:05, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The primary source is fine if there is no reason to doubt it. Does the nominator feel that a major network station would lie about someone winning $100,000 and publish false information? Other sources add to proof of notability. Dream Focus 14:51, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
