(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Can't find the sources to prove this passes the GNG; out of the four sources ever cited in the article, [1] is a cheese hobbiest's blog, [2], [3], and [4] are commercial sites selling cheese. (Including, at various points, this one). As the subject is an individual soft cheese produced by the "The Bath Soft Cheese Co", I don't really expect to find any more sources.

Full disclose, I came across this article while doing Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/Chamaemelum (author is CBANed for content & OR issues, and there's evidence they generated some of their articles with a 2023-era LLM.) As such, I did nuke a large portion of the article and I tried to rewrite it, but given the lack of RSs, I don't think I can salvage it. GreenLipstickLesbian💌🦋 00:06, 31 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - according to this article it won an award. I think it's the same thing but maybe not.. JMWt (talk) 18:54, 31 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  @JMWt Same cheese company, but this award was given to their "Wyfe of Bath" cheese, not "Bath Soft Cheese". :/ Thanks for finding it though, it might be useful if somebody wants to write an article about the cheese company itself. GreenLipstickLesbian💌🦋 23:57, 31 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete a random cheese product lacking much coverage is not notable. the company might be, however. Metallurgist (talk) 19:46, 6 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  This reminds me; obligatory notice that I don't mind if somebody wants to restore this to draftspace to retroactively merge content to an article on the company. But, as the main author now, I don't think it's worth it. GreenLipstickLesbian💌🦋 20:00, 6 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
