- Keep systemic bias. Legitimate defunct newspaper of Norway. MLA (talk) 21:40, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- it still requires sources. Gbooks normally turns up for historically significant. There are many defunct newspapers in the world, not all merit an article. LibStar (talk) 02:40, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- See wp:recentism. The accepted wikipedia convention is "once notable,always notable". walk victor falk talk 21:20, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep [2] [3] As a local paper of the Norwegian Labour Party, the largest party at the time, it is notable. Consideration should be taken for the relative paucity of on-line sources in 1955. walk victor falk talk 21:20, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Frivolous to even mention Google News in the nomination. Kind of long-running newspaper. Definitely notable. Had several notable editors, as shown through WhatLinksHere. Probably has an entry in a 2010 book, but I haven't checked yet (don't own the book). Geschichte (talk) 23:10, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep notable; Victor Falk shows some coverage which is reliable, and Geschichte's claim is plausible. Gbooks also shows a bit in Aschehougs konversasjons leksikon, although preview is not available, it seems that the newspaper has been covered in a general-purpose paper encyclopedia. I also have a problem with the nominator's rationale, as it is based entirely on finding little in three, online, modern, English-language sites, all from the same company and all which have severe limitations in their coverage. Information about such a subject is likely to be found at a real-live library. Arsenikk (talk) 10:59, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
