Proposed deletion of Ashland Skate Park

edit

This article was proposed for deletion by Onel5969 on 13 November 2019. Reason given: “Small, non-notable local park for skateboarders. Fails WP:GNG.”

  • Object. Ashland Skate Park is notable for being not only the only skate park of its kind, but the only skate park at all, in this area of the state and is heavily used by skateboarders from nearby counties and towns including skaters from the capital region of central Virginia. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find a lot of media coverage or other news about the skate park because it is in a semi-rural part of the state away from the big media centers, but it meets notability guidelines for being the only public skate park of its kind (or at all) in this part of the state. Because there are no commercial entities who have an interest in promoting the skatepark, Wikipedia is one of very few public sources of objective, unbiased information about the skatepark.
