Article lacks any cited sources. External links are all affiliated with the subject. Article thus fails WP:V. Subject might be notable but there is no verifiable evidence in the article and a Google failed to produce anything that rings the notability bell. Article was tagged PROD which was subsequently removed along with maintenance tags, without comment or improvement by the IP creator. Ad Orientem (talk) 17:32, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. it's usually a sign of lack of notability when an article's only references are the organisation's web site, Twitter, and Facebook, but I searched on Google for more evidence. The earliest hits on a Google search were such things as I found the organisation's web site, this Wikipedia article, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, etc: not a good sign, as notable subjects usually get something more significant within the first few hits. I checked the few pages that looked more promising. Some of them appeared to be pages mentioning the words "world snowboard tour", but not about this organisation, others were not substantial coverage or not in reliable independent source, and in most cases both of those applied.
