Declined Speedy Deletion, as text was not present at the indicated website. However, I see no evidence that this event meets the criteria for inclusion. The talk page mentions there was [a page] for every other anime convention but EAE, but this in itself is not sufficient reason for there to be an article. The only press coverage I can find are press releases in the Erie Times-News, and I can find no coverage at independent reliable sources.

• What do you mean, "text was not present at the indicated website"?[1] The article, as of this comment, is a direct copy and paste of that page. Strikerforce^{Talk Review me!} 01:21, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• The link that I went to didn't go to that page, which I see is indeed identical, my apologies! The link I followed from the page when to the site's FAQ blog.

However, I also note that a request has been sent to OTRS to give permission for the text to be used. Should that be accepted, I still feel that the article does not meet the criteria for inclusion. In the mean time, I am going to blank the copyrighted material until such time as either OTRS permission is sorted out, or this AfD ends up with a "delete" conclusion.
