Skynxnex ( talk ) 04:40, 18 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Question Hey, GMH Melbourne , I'm not as familiar with AUS sources as you probably are, but to me those don't all look like simple straight interviews.  Many sources will speak to a representative when covering any sort of business, and quoting those representatives doesn't turn a story into an interview.  I feel like multiple of them are actually talking about the business in their own voices more than they're quoting the representatives.  Can you elaborate on why you feel each of these doesn't represent independent coverage?  Are these sources known for sponsored content?  For me the Vice piece probably fails to support notability of the restaurant more because its four long paragraphs before the interview portion are about the proprietor rather than about the restaurant.  I would actually tend to accept that source as support for notability for the proprietor.  Valereee ( talk ) 14:20, 19 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] According to the table, the other sources are not just interviews, but also promo pieces or very promotional.  A promo piece definitely would not count as a RS.  Industrial Insect (talk) 18:25, 19 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Valereee : I understand what you mean.  If we take what you have said into account, I'd say that The Age article could count towards GNG.  Broadsheet is a food/travel magazine it would be hard to say whether or not they are totally independent of the subject.  The Herald Sun article is a total promo piece with a burger created exclusively for heraldsun.com.au which leads me to doubt the independence of the broadsheet articles.  - GMH Melbourne ( talk ) 00:01, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Meh...I don't see promotionalism of the restaurant in that piece.  That's more the herald promoting itself, which all newspapers do to some extent -- a story 'exclusive to the NYT' is not the NYT promoting the subject of their story but the NYT promoting themselves.  So a burger created exclusively for the herald is really just the herald saying, "Aren't you glad you're reading the herald, because otherwise you wouldn't get this recipe!"  But that said, again the piece is primarily about Rashid and Chang, not about Beatbox.  So again I'd say not sigcov of this article subject.  The Broadsheet articles are about the restaurant.  I generally like to see different sources, but these are at least written by different people at the Broadsheet.  But that's still local coverage.  The Age is probably not significant coverage, it's a bare mention of BeatBox in a story about food trucks during COVID.  And the Vice is not about the restaurant.  I think on balance I'm landing on Delete .  Valereee ( talk ) 12:27, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Thanks, Daniel ( talk ) 00:07, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep I found this Vice article which is no doubt independent, sigcov, and has depth: https://www.vice.com/en/article/wjgg9x/raph-rashid-connects-cooking-with-home-studios This coverage of it shutting down which nevertheless is a secondary source that provides critical commentary of its life: https://www.smh.com.au/goodfood/eating-out/beatbox-kitchens-brunswick-burger-shop-is-closing-down-20210715-h1x5me.html This, combined with the dubious but in my opinion passable Broadsheet coverage meets WP:THREE and WP:GNG .  BrigadierG ( talk ) 01:33, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I wouldn't say the vice article is total independent, the vast majority of it is an interview with the owner, and even then I would say that it is based more on the owner rather than Beatbox Kitchen itself.  GMH Melbourne ( talk ) 09:47, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] That Vice piece is already in the article, and as GMH says, it's not about the subject.  It's about the owner.  Valereee ( talk ) 10:17, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete but consider a new BLP article on Raph Rashid, for which the Vice article would be one principle source (two more would be necessary).  The Vice article is in the source assessment table, which makes the point that the article is about Rashid and not about Beatbox Kitchen.  We don't seem to have a BLP article on Raph Rashid, but that might be what is notable, not the burger truck.  The article on the closing down must be approached with more caution.  It is a discursive primary source inasmuch as it is reporting the closure.  Discursive because it provides some background.  The background is relevant, the occasion for the source is not, being primary.  See WP:SIRS .  Nothing here meets WP:CORPDEPTH and this fails WP:NCORP , but again, we have one good source for a BLP.  If the BLP existed, redirect would be reasonable.  Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk ) 07:33, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete the chain fails sigcov but the owner could have an article on themselve.
