Curious Pastimes

Sees to be a non-notable role-play group. Offshoot ffrom a larger, notable group. A merge of this into the article about the larger ggroup was promptly reverted. 182 unique google hits. None seem to involve significant media coverage. Delete unless reliable evidence of notability is provided. DES ^(talk)

• No Vote. I don't know much about CP nor how notable a LARP organisation has to be to be included. According to their website, events vary in size from between 100-1000 LARPers. Certainly not as big as Lorien Trust, but still large. [1] Oh, please don't merge back to Lorien Trust. --JiFish(^Talk/_Contrib) 20:46, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Key words: "According to their website". Is this verifiable by any outside aource? Any media mention of this organization would go far towards establishign notabiliyt, IMO. DES ^(talk) 01:14, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• I would vote Delete but more based on lack of context. I read the article. I am no closer to understanding what it is talking about than before I read the article. James084 19:42, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Do not delete. I am one of the referees for CP, on the plot writing team. The largest event does indeed have over 1000 players. This makes it the second largest event of its type in the country and so should probably qualify as "notable." Also, it no longer counts as an off-shoot of Lorien Trust, but rather is in direct competition. The current article does lack content, but I'm working on a replacement - Troll — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.171.212.186 (talk)
  • If this article does get deleted, you can always post a new article with fresh context and claims to notability. Oh, and it's would probably be best to not use the nickname Troll here. I know what it means in a fantasy context, but on the internet it can mean something else. :) --JiFish(^Talk/_Contrib) 14:26, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Well, if it does in fact have more than 1000 players, that's a pretty significant LARP group. It makes it several times bigger, for instance, than the MIT Assassins' Guild. moink 05:48, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
