Quidi Vidi Brewing
[edit]Hi, Why is this brewing company notable? Does it pass WP:CORP? Just being "of interest" isn't really enough for a Wikipedia article. Your interest in contributing is great and I haven't marked the article as PROD (proposed deletion) or AfD (article for deletion) (yet) because I'm not sure of the notability. If you read WP:CORP and can explain why this micro-brewery is notable, that will be good enough for me... But Wikipedia shouldn't be a place for a list of all microbreweries with an article on each (IMHO). If there's something unique and notable about this one, that's great. Thanks again for your time and effort and if there's anyway I can help just leave me a note on my talk page. Brian 19:39, 7 July 2006 (UTC)btball
- Hi and thanks for your message. Since I asked why it was notable I discovered that there is a beer/brewing/brewery project in Wikipedia and that breweries might be an exception to WP:CORP
I want to research this some more to make sure we're not being too hasty in deleting this - and to determine what, if anything, might need to be done to the Quidi Vidi Brewing article for it to be acceptable within Wikipedia. I'm travelling right now without much Internet access so it might be a few days before I reach a conclusion but when I do I'll post another message here on your user talk page.

Commons Photos
[edit]I have just spend one weeks vacation on the west coast of Newfoundland and photographed quite a bit of the small coastal towns, post offices, lakes and Long Range Mountains. I have started adding the photos to the article List of communities in Newfoundland and Labrador, you can link there from our Wiki article by the same name. I will be adding more later and feel free to use them while expanding the communities articles WayneRay 14:16, 14 August 2007 (UTC)WayneRay
