The article Rochester Top 100 has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- WP:NOTMIRROR: the list is published by a group of unknown notability, with nothing on their website to explain the methodology behing the ranking, and the article is merely a mirror of the list available at the reference given. No significant coverage online from WP:Reliable sources, apart from a few articles in a local newspaper.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
