The police department of a town of 12,600 might not satisfy WP:ORG. Edison (talk) 01:42, 21 March 2012 (UTC) Edison (talk) 01:42, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - That's true, it might not. Then again, it might. Is that a rationale for deletion? Has the nominator made a good faith effort to search for sources? Is there some reason why this page SHOULD be deleted? Failing a proper deletion rationale, I would advise a speedy close here. Carrite (talk) 17:04, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Burden of proof is on you just as much. I know how you roll — you think everything should be kept, and you always assume bad faith in the nominators' searches for sources. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 18:55, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I suppose I should have explicitly said that I observed WP:BEFORE. A search of Google News and its archive, and Google books did not show sources to satisfy WP:ORG. All editors are welcome to point out here refs they can find which would satisfy WP:ORG.Edison (talk) 23:55, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom, coverage is limited to routine mentions in local newspapers and biographies of police officers. Possibly merge to Huron, South Dakota but I don't see a great deal of useful content. Hut 8.5 17:22, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
