I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles.

New page

Congratulations on the new article! You've got a great start here - don't forget that you can use reviews of the location like this as long as they're by a reliable source like Time Out or an academic or scholarly source. Also, be careful of using phrases like "best known", as it's better to just use the word "known" since what it's best known for may differ from person to person.

Deletion discussion of El Rio (gay bar)

Hi Savannahmaria, as you probably saw above, there is a deletion discussion for an article you created. If you are interested in preventing this article from being deleted, there are steps that you can take. In its deletion discussion, editors are pointing out that the sources that you added only mention El Rio in passing ("trivial coverage"). The source or article is maybe not focused on El Rio. To create an article that meets the general notability guidelines, look for multiple sources that are independent of the topic that have significant coverage of the topic. If you can find some additional sources that would help prove the notability of El Rio, you should add them to the article promptly. Let me know if you have any questions about this.
