Deletion of ExposedVocals

Comment: Editing the article so that it no longer claims that the press coverage was the result of a dedicated publicity blitz does not alter that fact.  The inclusion of that fact in the article is not the problem; the fact itself is the problem.  The Shorty Awards nomination is just that, a nomination.  Even a win of this award would be of questionable value in terms of meeting  or .  The FedEx grant nomination appears to be a self-nomination.  ExposedVocals wants this money, and may get it if enough people vote for them, but there is no indication they have yet been awarded the grant, and again, even if they are, that is not really a source of notability per Wikipedia standards

Comment: True, that is an assumption I made.  But whether it's valid or not, there have been a number of users contributing to this discussion who have never edited Wikipedia before, and who have made no useful contribution to this discussion.  Remember, |"I like it" is a weak argument to make at AFD
