Bargo Rural Fire Brigade

Non-notable fire brigade. Jmlk17 06:49, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

• Weak Keep - Could be a notable article. It's new and could be given time to grow. If the logo were to be uploaded and included, along with a good, wikified base text, it'd be better off in terms of keep-ability. Anyone know what the prevailing precedent is for fire companies? Is there any sort of general, inherent consensus? This article has the potential for a decent-sized article and should be given the time to grow. (Geez, how can it be any less notable than fuzzy dice or vorpal or tar baby?) VigilancePrime (talk) 07:07, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Very narrow scope of notability and I doubt many people outside the area care about this fire company. Local fire stations do not need a page on wikipedia, unless they have some claim to fame or broad notability Corpx (talk) 09:23, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
• Redirect to Bargo, New South Wales. The fire brigade is a major public service, but for a small community mainly of very local notability. Brigade appears to be already covered there. (Incidentally, the Bargo article is in need of some overhaul.) Sjakkalle (Check!) 09:44, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
• Merge per Sjakkale and WP:LOCAL. Every locale has fire protection, so existing does not confer notability. --Dhartung | Talk 09:57, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
• Delete per the dual speedy-tagging at its previous home and per the reasons at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Rockland_Paramedic_Services, which I believe apply here as well. Travellingcari (talk) 13:05, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
• Redirect as notability is only on a local scale, and per the essay WP:LOCAL. If it was on a TV documentary like Police Camera Action! or Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for the Next Doll then it would be automatically notable per WP:NOTE, but right now, it doesn't seem that way. --Solumeiras (talk) 13:07, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
