Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rainbow Lounge raid
Article is about the event, not the bar... so we should follow whatever the going standard is for articles about events (will defer to more knowledgeable editors there). |Recentism by itself is not a reason for deletion (at least according to the essay). By Wikipedia standards: the bar is not notable, nor would be the event by itself (if it had stopped there). What would make it notable is the public's reaction to it, which led to the NY Times and LA Times reporting the story
