Organization lacks independent, in-depth sourcing necessary to pass WP:GNG. Prod was removed by User:Kvng. User:Namiba 17:34, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I found the following independent sources: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]. I'm not sure this is enough to meet WP:ORG OR how WP:LOCAL applies here but it seemedd to be enough to WP:DEPROD. ~Kvng (talk) 15:48, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Several of the sources repeat the same information re: the Fire Department's response to the pandemic and should be treated as one source. While we can prove that it exists, there is no in-depth coverage.--User:Namiba 14:01, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all the sourcing is extremely local. Local papaers will occasionally write about the doings of the local fire department, this is not enough to justify having an article on that fire department.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:00, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, can't even recommend a "redirect" to the county level fire dept article as there isnt one. Drat! Coolabahapple (talk) 02:17, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There's no automatic notability for local fire departments, even if there's some routine local news and non-independent content. Lacks in-depth non-news coverage. Reywas92^Talk 20:29, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
