Doesn't seem like a notable event to me. AutomaticStrikeout 01:34, 8 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

keep Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it. I'm relatively new here so I guess I probably should have written the article in sandbox with all the references and everything before putting it up. I disagree that this article isn't noteworthy. The pepsi sports challenge is a very popular television segment in Central Illinois featured on network tv. I feel if the For the Love of Ray J (season 2) can have an article, so can the WAND Pepsi Challenge. See http://www.wandtv.com/category/205568/s to learn more about it. Again thanks for yoru feedback. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Benmoff1 (talk • contribs) 02:18, 8 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That's what this is for, to determine if it should be included or not. If you wish to cast a vote to keep this article, just add the word keep in bold text before your above comment. AutomaticStrikeout 03:54, 8 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Wifione ^Message 02:57, 15 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Firstly, the existence of other article that may or may not seem more notable has no purchase on this AfD. Saying that WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS won't save an article because all that might mean is that the other article just hasn't been merged, deleted, or redirected yet. Where this event (the Pepsi Challenge) suffers is that it's really not covered by any reliable sources other than the channel that puts on the event. This coverage can't be used to show notability because it's considered to be a primary source. It just can't show notability. Because of this, the event just isn't notable enough to have it's own page. The only thing I might suggest is that it gets a very, very brief mention in the WAND article and this page redirect to there.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 04:11, 15 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
