Speedy Keep per WP:SK and WP:EIEIO. Andrew (talk) 23:25, 9 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

For heavens' sake. Questionable notability, erring on an advert.--Laun chba ller 00:12, 10 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - It strikes me that Manchester is a major British city, with a VERY strong textiles manufacturing history and one of the top British fashion museums is located there (the Gallery of Costume at Platt Hall). The article could be less promotional, but on Google, I'm seeing a pretty high profile event with a lot of coverage (yes, this is probably because they have a good press team, but even so, the fact that it has received such wide-ranging promotion means it is in the public eye, and I see consistent ongoing coverage over the several years it's been running. While the individual articles may not be absolutely rock solid reliable sources, there are many that aren't definitely unreliable, and I see such a VERY high volume of coverage and mentions that it seems a pretty legit subject for an article. Rewrite it or stubify it, but I don't think delete is appropriate. At the absolute least, it is probably appropriate for merger to a new section in Culture of Manchester.

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

Comment. What categories should this article be in, relevant now so that we could compare this to others of its type. I see no Category:Fashion shows and no other possibilies. --do ncr am 22:07, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

See London Fashion Week for relevant categories. Mabalu (talk) 00:09, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks User:Mabalu, following that example i added Category:Fashion events in England and some other categories. Another in the category is Oxford Fashion Week, which is also sort of week. This Manchester article was apparently a modified version of that, it still had mention of "Oxford" where "Manchester" was meant (i fixed that). I dunno, it could be kept i guess:

Weak Keep, i guess. "No consensus" would be fine too. --do ncr am 23:23, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No Consensus. I can't make my own mind up so my thoughts have no consensus! Szzuk (talk) 07:25, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
