with a reminder that |Notability is based on the ''existence'' of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article. The present state of any article |is not evidence of lack of notability (see Wikipedia's first article on https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Michael_Jackson&oldid=267796 Michael Jackson.) The ''Guam Daily News'' was the territory's first civilian paper, with 70 years of history. A cursory web search reveals multiple reliable sources (and suggest more can be found), enough to create a balanced encyclopedia article, even if short.{{cite news |title=Civilan Daily Paper Succeeds Navy Paper on Guam |url=https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83045462/1950-06-17/ed-1/seq-28/#date1=1789&index=0&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&words=Daily+Guam+News&proxdistance=5&date2=1963&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Guam+Daily+News&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1 |work=Evening Star |agency=Associated Press |date=17 June 1950 |page=B-7}}{{cite news |title=Guam Recovers, Moving Ahead in New Status |url=https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn87065530/1952-08-15/ed-1/seq-7/#date1=1789&index=1&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&words=Daily+Guam+News&proxdistance=5&date2=1963&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Guam+Daily+News&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1 |work=The Chronicle Star the Moss Point Advertiser |date=15 August 1952 |page=7}}{{cite book|title=Information on Guam Transmitted by the United States to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Pursuant to Article 73(e) of the Charter|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Teibw25A4S8C&pg=PA50|date=June 1952|publisher=U.S. Navy Department|pages=50–}}{{cite journal |last1=Dalisay |first1=Francis |title=Social Control in an American Pacific Island |journal=Journal of Communication Inquiry |date=2009 |volume=33 |issue=3 |pages=239–257 |doi=10.1177/0196859909333694}}{{cite book|author=Jacqueline Korona Teare|title=The Pacific Daily News: The Small Town Newspaper Covering a Vast Frontier|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=kuN_LQZLq3oC|year=1980|publisher=Michigan State University.
