In conjunction with the above request to nominate Michael Moates for deletion, so too do I nominate this page. It's Moates' website, similarly of no notability whatsoever, and its entire page is self-promoting and full of citations from the website itself.

Advertorially toned article about a band, who have a potentially valid claims to passing WP:NMUSIC for touring, but no indication of reliable source coverage about them to support it. The references here are mainly to primary sources and the few things that might have been actual media coverage are unrecoverable dead links, making it impossible to verify whether they constituted substantive coverage of the band or just namechecks of its existence. So the sourcing simply isn't where it needs to be, and there's nothing stated in the body text that's compelling enough to grant them a presumption of notability in the absence of better sourcing -- and for an article that was created in 2011, the fact that neither the sourcing nor the substance have been touched since 2011 doesn't augur well for actual notability either. Also conflict of interest, as the creator's username corresponds to the name of the band's record label. Bearcat ( talk) 17:57, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

The article has no third-party soucres on the TV Series, covering the subject in depth. Reliable sources are absent. References are to an imdb listing, the Greek channel program, or to sources irrelevent to the subject, just to create the impression of notabity (like ref #5 "awards 1973", that has nothing to do with the series). It seems that the article has been created just to promote Angelique Rockas, and most likeky is self-promotional. All the main contributors have COI with the subject.

Administrator note I have moved the page back into article space, where it was when nominated. Articles should never be moved while a deletion discussion is underway. I have move-protected it for the duration to insure it does not happen again. Moving it back to draft space is a possible outcome here, but unilaterally doing so in the middle of the discussion is just confusing, and
edit warring over it is particualrly counter-productive.

My initial impression was that the subject of the article suffers from lack of notability. The coverage that I did find suspiciously look like vanity press. (See WP:RS on this.) There is not a single reliable source that has tested its antimalware capabilities. (In addition to Google Search, I looked av-test.org directly.)
But more suspiciously, this looks like a scam. I couldn't find a shred of evidence that suggests this is truly a Trend Micro product, which already has another mobile security solution called Trend Micro Mobile Security. It is highly suspicious for a product claiming to be from Trend Micro to set up its official website on a free Wordpress.com blog: See revision 740604311. Later, a TrendMicroDrSafety.com is added, so I did more checks: The digital certificate for trendmicro.com is an Extended Validation Certificate (proves the legal entity controlling the website) issued by AffirmTrust, to Trend Micro, Irving, Texas, United States. (AffirmTrust itself is a subsidiary of Trend Micro.) The digital certificate for LookupTrendMicroDrSafety.com is a plain Let's Encrypt certificate that anyone can acquire. Also, comparing their whois data: TrendMicro.com WHOIS vs. TrendMicroSafety.com WHOIS.

In its current form, this is a manifesto, not a Wikipedia article, and seems like the group has a goal of creating a Wikipedia entry (see here). An article on a group can't rely on primary sources or original research, it has to draw from third-party sources that describe the movement. This article doesn't have any of those, and a search on Google shows that none exist.

No coverage in reliable sources could be found, and there is no indication that the album charted on any major Indian chart. Online hits appear to be mostly false positives.

The result was delete. Numerically it's a split, but the core argument for deletion is compelling and uncontested: the content is entirely based on self-published websites, which are basically the textbook definition of what WP:RS are not. Because WP:V as a core policy cannot be superseded by consensus, the opinions to keep must be discounted. While I appreciate arguments such as RoySmith's that we should nonetheless keep this useful or interesting content per WP:IAR, I do not think that these arguments hold up under scrutiny. IAR asks us to ignore rules that prevent us from improving Wikipedia, but in the light of the core policy of verifiability, it is the removal rather than the addition of unverifiable material that improves Wikipedia.

The purpose and scope of this article seem very unclear. It purports to "present the numbering systems used by various record companies for single records", but there are/have been dozens (hundreds?) of record labels that have released singles and it seems unclear what purpose an article trying to describe every label's catalog numbering system, just for one type of release (vinyl singles), serves in an encyclopedia. Notes on a particular record label's catalog numbering system would, I think, best go in the article about that record label. There doesn't seem to be much use in trying to compile all record labels' catalog systems into a single list. Nearly every reference in this article is to a single website, http://www.78discography.com/, which appears to be a personal website. Other refs point to http://www.45cat.com/ which I think is a wiki. The article was created and mainly built up by User:BRG who, according to their user page, stepped away from WP because they felt the concepts of "reliable sources" and "notability" were detrimental, and didn't see why personal web pages weren't reliable as sources. I think that probably explains why this article exists. IllaZilla ( talk) 18:53, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

This is a group of WP:permastubs about albums of the Dutch punk rock band Heideroosjes that are all completely unsourced and contain only basic track listing information (and, in some cases, comments about other releases of the same songs or comments about who played which instruments). There is no commentary by music critics or any other indication of notability. This nomination for deletion also includes the following additional articles:
These were previously nominated for deletion and discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Warped Tour 2002 Tour Compilation. While most people who commented supported deletion, they were kept on the procedural principle that instead of having a longer list of articles for deletion, the nomination should be broken up into smaller ones.

The book notes:
Cantina Laredo is one of the more ambitious restaurants to participate in the large-scale, city-subsidized development of the area dubbed the "Second Street District." Although this one is actually on Third Street, it looks and feels more connected to the yup-and-coming new row of botiques and eateries on Second.
We must first disclose that Cantina Laredo is unfortunately a subsidiary of Consolidated Restaurant Operations (the name alone makes us shudder), of Spaghetti Warehouse and El Chico fame. Designers have done an okay job of avoiding that chain-restaurant feel; although furnishings are trendified, they still manage to feel soothing and intimate. We are booth fans, and particularly like the cozy two-person booths here. Lighting is dim, and there's a certain pleasant bustle to the place. But Laredo really has been suffering from the Consolidated Restaurant Ooperations feel lately, with seemingly high staff turnover, an increasingly impersonal experience, and sketchy execution.
The article notes:
The upscale, Dallas-based chain Cantina Laredo boasts locations as diverse as Abu Dhabi, Branson, Chicago and, since October of last year, Clayton. Whether it resembles anything that you might find in Mexico itself is debatable. The menu nods at traditional Mexican fare, but it also includes more than a few concessions to the fajitas-and-margaritas crowd.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo, by comparison, is brand new in these parts: It’s the offspring of a national chain and potentially at odds with our locavore instincts.
...
The 34-restaurant Cantina Laredo chain is at the upscale end of the even larger company, Consolidated Restaurant Operations. Each cantina is customized to its site.
Destiny USA — the first mall to recruit a Cantina Laredo — inspired a linear, minimalist decor with polished wood, rustic stone and contemporary black leather.
The article notes:
A Texas-based chain's first foray into South Florida, Plantation's Cantina Laredo moved in last month with all sorts of corporate-concept banter promising authentic, gourmet Mexican cuisine in a sophisticated atmosphere.
...
We weren't exactly wowed by Cantina Laredo's chicken dishes - the camarónes escondidos seemed way too salty, and the fajitas had an overwhelmingly smoky taste.
The beef fajitas, on the other hand, were marvelous, and the achiote roasted pork quesadillas, pure comfort food.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo prides itself on gourmet Mexican fare, and the restaurant's food is indeed a step up from that you find at many Mexican eateries. So are the price tags. My favorite entrée at Cantina Laredo, the camarones escondidos -- or hidden shrimp -- cost $18.99. The cheaper things I tried tended to come in somewhat small portions. My overall impression of the restaurant was that the food was tasty but often overpriced by a few dollars per dish. Still, Cantina Laredo is a welcome addition to Twenty Ninth Street. The fare is interesting and the ambience inviting.
...
One way Cantina Laredo distinguishes itself from many Mexican restaurants is with its sauces. Don't expect just the standard choices here, like red or green chile. The hidden shrimp, for instance, are topped with a delicious chipotle-wine sauce. The peppery flavor builds in your mouth as you chew, while a smoky undercurrent complements the sweetness of the shrimp.
The article notes:
The location will depend finding a site and a financial partner, something Lemmer has done in Melbourne and with the white-tablecloth Mexican concept, Cantina Laredo, which he has opened in Plantation and Fort Myers.
El Chico Cafe and Cantina Laredo are both concepts of Consolidated Restaurant Operations Inc. in Dallas.
...
At $18 to $22 per check, Cantina Laredo patrons repast on grilled fish, chicken and steaks like those served in gourmet restaurants in Mexico City.
The company has been in Florida since 1984 and done well, said Harkey. "Len Lemmer's Fort Myers store "has proven to be the number one Cantina Laredo in our entire system."
The first restaurant in this area will open in spring 2006 in Palm Beach Gardens on PGA Boulevard just west of Military Trail. That store is scheduled to open in spring 2006.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo, a "gourmet Mexican restaurant, is opening in Penn Square Mall, replacing the space Garcia's once occupied. The new restaurant will be the first Cantina Laredo in the state.
...
It's not an El Chico, but Cantina Laredo is one of the brands under Consolidated Restaurant Operations Inc., the company that operates El Chico, Spaghetti Warehouse and various other concepts. CRO did not return calls.
...
Cantina Laredo has 11 locations in Texas, Arizona and Florida. Menu items include signatures such as fajitas, tacos and enchiladas as well as specials including shrimp and 16 ounce ribeyes.
The article notes:
GOOD-LOOKING: You'd be hard-pressed to find a more attractive Mexican restaurant than Cantina Laredo - both in drive-up appeal and décor. Its hacienda-style stucco exterior sets it apart from other tenants at the northeast corner of Preston and Royal.
Dim, strategic lighting and upscale Southwestern appointments make the dining room a soothing spot in which to linger when there's not a crowd. When jammed, Cantina Laredo displays the jumpin' side of a dual personality. As the 3-year-old restaurant's name suggests, the huge bar (20-plus bar stools) is at the heart of the space, with a regular crowd bellying up for food and drink.
...
A SECOND LOOK: Before checking out the restaurant for review, we had dined there on occasion, and though its attractiveness and handsome bar had us hooked for a while,we found the food to be inconsistent. On a recent return visit, we were delighted to find a significant improvement.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo is a chain restaurant, but it's not just another version of the Tex-Mex chains that popped up everywhere in the 1990s. The dishes are of a much higher quality, as are the ingredients. Although, beware; the prices are higher as well.
...
Cantina Laredo provides Mexican fare a cut above the ordinary - and quite a few cuts above with some dishes. If you go, make sure to order the guacamole. But also be prepared to pay a bit more than you are used to at other Mexican chains.
The article notes:
If you are expecting real gut-busting, jalapeno-laden Mexican food at Cantina Laredo, you are in the wrong place. Even the name should clue you in: Cantina Laredo. Can it get any more corporate than that?
But if you are in the market for some relatively good Tex-Mex food in an elaborately styled "cantina," this is your spot. It is located in that little gold mining village the locals like to call "the Town Center," where even on a Wednesday night, the wait is 30 minutes long. We smartly made reservations and enjoyed some seriously good tequila while our table was being prepared.
...
While the decor is refreshing, we found the food to be hit-and-miss. ...
All in all, I may not call Cantina Laredo true "gourmet" Mexican food, but it definitely is an improvement on some of the more generic "ground beef and taco shell" places around town. We'll go back, and we will definitely make reservations when we do.
The article notes:
The Cantina Laredo in the Corner Shopping Center can't be judged so easily. The salsa is warmed, a nice touch, and it has large tomato pieces, also a plus. But it holds so little else -- scant onion and jalapeno burn -- that ultimately it is boring. Ditto for the pico de gallo, mostly onion and mushy tomatoes. But look past the batch-produced items and Catina Laredo, which is owned by El Chico, offers some out-of-the-ordinary fare.
...
The original Cantina Laredo opened in Addison in 1984; this one last summer, and more are reportedly in the works. But don't judge them by their chain aspirations -- or their salsas. They offer good, reasonably priced Tex-Mex.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo, Gene Street's stylish new place at Preston Royal, sure looks good. Dallas' Mr. Restaurant has broken away from the border cliche of earlier Cantinas and their sibling El Chico cafes. Employee-designed, it's muy nuevo Laredo, all cool and contemporary, with rough-plastered sand-colored walls, low ceilings, track and recessed lighting - sort of postmodern Southwestern with a splash of mission style. No kitschy, Disney-esque touches here.
...
But if you look this pretty, you ought to cook this pretty. And we hit some ugly spots on our first visit.
Most of our entrees were served tepid. At the other extreme, a dessert brownie was burned. Chicken came in various guises, but all of them were dry and unappealing.
The kitchen couldn't plead a rush-hour crunch; the restaurant was less than a quarter full when we dined on a Sunday afternoon.
...
Service on both visits was prompt, polite and eager. Cantina Laredo's task is to see that the food's consistency comes up to the same level. Until then, we're thinking "Never on Sunday."
The article notes:
The restaurant is the first Ohio iteration of the 30-unit chain.
...
Cantina Laredo aims for sophistication in its menu and decor, the latter through blond wood and black leather, with a sweeping bar, a series of dining rooms, an all-weather patio and a small, three-season space.
That bar is covered with Texas limestone, and behind it, along with regular offerings, are 50 brands of tequila, available by the drink or in flights for tastings.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo, an upscale Mexican chain with nearly a dozen locations in Texas, opened its first Austin site three months ago in the new Second Street shopping and entertainment district on the ground floor of the AMLI building. The place has two things going for it: a location in a vibrant area and a sleek, stylish dining room that has the feel of a hip, urban environment.
That's good, because the one thing it doesn't have is food worth going there for.
...
Cantina Laredo has a lot of work to do. On average, the food there is merely acceptable, which merits neither a star nor a recommendation to drive across town to eat there.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo is a Mexican restaurant that defies easy categorization. It's not your neighborhood Tex-Mex joint, where you head for a cheese-laden combo platter, endless bowls of chips and maybe a frozen margarita (or two or three). Nor does it quite qualify as a citadel of sophisticated Mexican cooking a la Rosa Mexicano.
Instead, Cantina Laredo aspires to be a mix of the two, appealing to a slightly upscale crowd but not one that wants to be too daring with its choice of cuisine. The result? An altogether different approach to south-of-the-border-style dining. Call it Suburban Mex.
...
Cantina is part of a growing nationwide chain, with more than 20 restaurants throughout the country. So its Suburban Mex formula may not be so new, after all. But the appeal is still there, provided you go in with the right expectations.
The article notes:
The restaurant is owned by local investors and Consolidated Restaurant Operations is a partner as well, in addition to being the operator, he said. “It’s a 50-50 partnership,” he said.
Cantina Laredo first opened in 1984 in Addison, Texas, a suburb of Dallas. There are 35 locations in the United States, with additional locations in Abu Dhabi and London.
The article notes:
True to its Orwellian-sounding name, Consolidated Restaurant Operations Inc. is a Texas-based corporation that operates more than 100 restaurants in the United States, the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt. Of those, more than 30 are Cantina Laredos and seven are III Forks steakhouses, each of which recently opened a Chicago location. The two-story behemoth that is Cantina Laredo takes up a good chunk of a city block near the finally-not-under-construction Grand Red Line stop, while a few blocks to the east...
The article notes:
Spoiler alert. This review contains details of the single worst dish the reviewer has yet encountered in her professional career. If you don't want to know the ending, or are reading this in the hope of finding a great new Mexican restaurant, look away now.
I didn't want to hate Cantina Laredo. Good Mexican food can be a wonderful thing, and the arrival in central London of an American institution serving "gourmet Mexican food" sounded like something to celebrate.
...
So trust me, I went to Cantina Laredo in the genuine hope of some vivid, authentic Mexican food. Founded in Dallas, the brand is already well established in the States. The London branch, operating under franchise, occupies a new development on the traffic-clogged edge of Covent Garden, just up the road from Stringfellows. Border country, in other words, patrolled by hungry travellers who have journeyed many miles by bridge and by tunnel in search of sustenance.
Cantina Laredo received significant coverage in a UK newspaper, The Independent. It has received persistent coverage between 1991 and 2017. It clearly passes Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline and Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies).
The result was keep. The consensus is that the subject of this article satisfies the general notability guideline on the basis of sources that are available which provide significant coverage. Mz7 ( talk) 06:10, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

Advertorially toned article about a band, who have a potentially valid claims to passing WP:NMUSIC for touring, but no indication of reliable source coverage about them to support it. The references here are mainly to primary sources and the few things that might have been actual media coverage are unrecoverable dead links, making it impossible to verify whether they constituted substantive coverage of the band or just namechecks of its existence. So the sourcing simply isn't where it needs to be, and there's nothing stated in the body text that's compelling enough to grant them a presumption of notability in the absence of better sourcing -- and for an article that was created in 2011, the fact that neither the sourcing nor the substance have been touched since 2011 doesn't augur well for actual notability either.

References are to an imdb listing, the Greek channel program, or to sources irrelevent to the subject, just to create the impression of notabity (like ref #5 "awards 1973", that has nothing to do with the series). It seems that the article has been created just to promote Angelique Rockas, and most likeky is self-promotional. All the main contributors have COI with the subject.

Administrator note I have moved the page back into article space, where it was when nominated. Articles should never be moved while a deletion discussion is underway. I have move-protected it for the duration to insure it does not happen again. Moving it back to draft space is a possible outcome here, but unilaterally doing so in the middle of the discussion is just confusing, and
edit warring over it is particualrly counter-productive.

My initial impression was that the subject of the article suffers from lack of notability. The coverage that I did find suspiciously look like vanity press. (See WP:RS on this.) There is not a single reliable source that has tested its antimalware capabilities. (In addition to Google Search, I looked av-test.org directly.)
But more suspiciously, this looks like a scam. I couldn't find a shred of evidence that suggests this is truly a Trend Micro product, which already has another mobile security solution called Trend Micro Mobile Security. It is highly suspicious for a product claiming to be from Trend Micro to set up its official website on a free Wordpress.com blog: See revision 740604311. Later, a TrendMicroDrSafety.com is added, so I did more checks: The digital certificate for trendmicro.com is an Extended Validation Certificate (proves the legal entity controlling the website) issued by AffirmTrust, to Trend Micro, Irving, Texas, United States. (AffirmTrust itself is a subsidiary of Trend Micro.) The digital certificate for LookupTrendMicroDrSafety.com is a plain Let's Encrypt certificate that anyone can acquire.

In its current form, this is a manifesto, not a Wikipedia article, and seems like the group has a goal of creating a Wikipedia entry (see here). An article on a group can't rely on primary sources or original research, it has to draw from third-party sources that describe the movement. This article doesn't have any of those, and a search on Google shows that none exist. I'm sorry to say, but at the moment, this group does not seem to be notable enough (meaning it is not written about in enough reliable, third-party sources) for inclusion here.

Local coverage is simply expected to exist for any mayor anywhere, so one or two pieces of that is not enough to make a mayor notable under WP:GNG -- to warrant an encyclopedia article, she needs to show evidence of wider coverage extending significantly beyond just her own city.

The result was delete. Numerically it's a split, but the core argument for deletion is compelling and uncontested: the content is entirely based on self-published websites, which are basically the textbook definition of what WP:RS are not. Because WP:V as a core policy cannot be superseded by consensus, the opinions to keep must be discounted. While I appreciate arguments such as RoySmith's that we should nonetheless keep this useful or interesting content per WP:IAR, I do not think that these arguments hold up under scrutiny. IAR asks us to ignore rules that prevent us from improving Wikipedia, but in the light of the core policy of verifiability, it is the removal rather than the addition of unverifiable material that improves Wikipedia.

The purpose and scope of this article seem very unclear. It purports to "present the numbering systems used by various record companies for single records", but there are/have been dozens (hundreds?) of record labels that have released singles and it seems unclear what purpose an article trying to describe every label's catalog numbering system, just for one type of release (vinyl singles), serves in an encyclopedia. Notes on a particular record label's catalog numbering system would, I think, best go in the article about that record label. There doesn't seem to be much use in trying to compile all record labels' catalog systems into a single list. Nearly every reference in this article is to a single website, http://www.78discography.com/, which appears to be a personal website. Other refs point to http://www.45cat.com/ which I think is a wiki. The article was created and mainly built up by User:BRG who, according to their user page, stepped away from WP because they felt the concepts of "reliable sources" and "notability" were detrimental, and didn't see why personal web pages weren't reliable as sources. I think that probably explains why this article exists. IllaZilla ( talk) 18:53, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

The book notes:
Cantina Laredo is one of the more ambitious restaurants to participate in the large-scale, city-subsidized development of the area dubbed the "Second Street District." Although this one is actually on Third Street, it looks and feels more connected to the yup-and-coming new row of botiques and eateries on Second.
We must first disclose that Cantina Laredo is unfortunately a subsidiary of Consolidated Restaurant Operations (the name alone makes us shudder), of Spaghetti Warehouse and El Chico fame. Designers have done an okay job of avoiding that chain-restaurant feel; although furnishings are trendified, they still manage to feel soothing and intimate. We are booth fans, and particularly like the cozy two-person booths here. Lighting is dim, and there's a certain pleasant bustle to the place. But Laredo really has been suffering from the Consolidated Restaurant Ooperations feel lately, with seemingly high staff turnover, an increasingly impersonal experience, and sketchy execution.
The article notes:
The upscale, Dallas-based chain Cantina Laredo boasts locations as diverse as Abu Dhabi, Branson, Chicago and, since October of last year, Clayton. Whether it resembles anything that you might find in Mexico itself is debatable. The menu nods at traditional Mexican fare, but it also includes more than a few concessions to the fajitas-and-margaritas crowd.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo, by comparison, is brand new in these parts: It’s the offspring of a national chain and potentially at odds with our locavore instincts.
...
The 34-restaurant Cantina Laredo chain is at the upscale end of the even larger company, Consolidated Restaurant Operations. Each cantina is customized to its site.
Destiny USA — the first mall to recruit a Cantina Laredo — inspired a linear, minimalist decor with polished wood, rustic stone and contemporary black leather.
The article notes:
A Texas-based chain's first foray into South Florida, Plantation's Cantina Laredo moved in last month with all sorts of corporate-concept banter promising authentic, gourmet Mexican cuisine in a sophisticated atmosphere.
...
We weren't exactly wowed by Cantina Laredo's chicken dishes - the camarónes escondidos seemed way too salty, and the fajitas had an overwhelmingly smoky taste.
The beef fajitas, on the other hand, were marvelous, and the achiote roasted pork quesadillas, pure comfort food.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo prides itself on gourmet Mexican fare, and the restaurant's food is indeed a step up from that you find at many Mexican eateries. So are the price tags. My favorite entrée at Cantina Laredo, the camarones escondidos -- or hidden shrimp -- cost $18.99. The cheaper things I tried tended to come in somewhat small portions. My overall impression of the restaurant was that the food was tasty but often overpriced by a few dollars per dish. Still, Cantina Laredo is a welcome addition to Twenty Ninth Street. The fare is interesting and the ambience inviting.
...
One way Cantina Laredo distinguishes itself from many Mexican restaurants is with its sauces. Don't expect just the standard choices here, like red or green chile. The hidden shrimp, for instance, are topped with a delicious chipotle-wine sauce. The peppery flavor builds in your mouth as you chew, while a smoky undercurrent complements the sweetness of the shrimp.

The location will depend finding a site and a financial partner, something Lemmer has done in Melbourne and with the white-tablecloth Mexican concept, Cantina Laredo, which he has opened in Plantation and Fort Myers.
El Chico Cafe and Cantina Laredo are both concepts of Consolidated Restaurant Operations Inc. in Dallas.
...
At $18 to $22 per check, Cantina Laredo patrons repast on grilled fish, chicken and steaks like those served in gourmet restaurants in Mexico City.
The company has been in Florida since 1984 and done well, said Harkey. "Len Lemmer's Fort Myers store "has proven to be the number one Cantina Laredo in our entire system."
The first restaurant in this area will open in spring 2006 in Palm Beach Gardens on PGA Boulevard just west of Military Trail. That store is scheduled to open in spring 2006.

It's not an El Chico, but Cantina Laredo is one of the brands under Consolidated Restaurant Operations Inc., the company that operates El Chico, Spaghetti Warehouse and various other concepts. CRO did not return calls.

Cantina Laredo has 11 locations in Texas, Arizona and Florida. Menu items include signatures such as fajitas, tacos and enchiladas as well as specials including shrimp and 16 ounce ribeyes.
The article notes:
GOOD-LOOKING: You'd be hard-pressed to find a more attractive Mexican restaurant than Cantina Laredo - both in drive-up appeal and décor. Its hacienda-style stucco exterior sets it apart from other tenants at the northeast corner of Preston and Royal.
Dim, strategic lighting and upscale Southwestern appointments make the dining room a soothing spot in which to linger when there's not a crowd. When jammed, Cantina Laredo displays the jumpin' side of a dual personality. As the 3-year-old restaurant's name suggests, the huge bar (20-plus bar stools) is at the heart of the space, with a regular crowd bellying up for food and drink.
...
A SECOND LOOK: Before checking out the restaurant for review, we had dined there on occasion, and though its attractiveness and handsome bar had us hooked for a while,we found the food to be inconsistent. On a recent return visit, we were delighted to find a significant improvement.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo is a chain restaurant, but it's not just another version of the Tex-Mex chains that popped up everywhere in the 1990s. The dishes are of a much higher quality, as are the ingredients. Although, beware; the prices are higher as well.
...
Cantina Laredo provides Mexican fare a cut above the ordinary - and quite a few cuts above with some dishes. If you go, make sure to order the guacamole. But also be prepared to pay a bit more than you are used to at other Mexican chains.
The article notes:
If you are expecting real gut-busting, jalapeno-laden Mexican food at Cantina Laredo, you are in the wrong place. Even the name should clue you in: Cantina Laredo. Can it get any more corporate than that?
But if you are in the market for some relatively good Tex-Mex food in an elaborately styled "cantina," this is your spot. It is located in that little gold mining village the locals like to call "the Town Center," where even on a Wednesday night, the wait is 30 minutes long. We smartly made reservations and enjoyed some seriously good tequila while our table was being prepared.
...
While the decor is refreshing, we found the food to be hit-and-miss. ...
All in all, I may not call Cantina Laredo true "gourmet" Mexican food, but it definitely is an improvement on some of the more generic "ground beef and taco shell" places around town. We'll go back, and we will definitely make reservations when we do.
The article notes:
The Cantina Laredo in the Corner Shopping Center can't be judged so easily. The salsa is warmed, a nice touch, and it has large tomato pieces, also a plus. But it holds so little else -- scant onion and jalapeno burn -- that ultimately it is boring. Ditto for the pico de gallo, mostly onion and mushy tomatoes. But look past the batch-produced items and Catina Laredo, which is owned by El Chico, offers some out-of-the-ordinary fare.
...
The original Cantina Laredo opened in Addison in 1984; this one last summer, and more are reportedly in the works. But don't judge them by their chain aspirations -- or their salsas. They offer good, reasonably priced Tex-Mex.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo, Gene Street's stylish new place at Preston Royal, sure looks good. Dallas' Mr. Restaurant has broken away from the border cliche of earlier Cantinas and their sibling El Chico cafes. Employee-designed, it's muy nuevo Laredo, all cool and contemporary, with rough-plastered sand-colored walls, low ceilings, track and recessed lighting - sort of postmodern Southwestern with a splash of mission style. No kitschy, Disney-esque touches here.
...
But if you look this pretty, you ought to cook this pretty. And we hit some ugly spots on our first visit.
Most of our entrees were served tepid. At the other extreme, a dessert brownie was burned. Chicken came in various guises, but all of them were dry and unappealing.
The kitchen couldn't plead a rush-hour crunch; the restaurant was less than a quarter full when we dined on a Sunday afternoon.
...
Service on both visits was prompt, polite and eager. Cantina Laredo's task is to see that the food's consistency comes up to the same level. Until then, we're thinking "Never on Sunday."
The article notes:
The restaurant is the first Ohio iteration of the 30-unit chain.
...
Cantina Laredo aims for sophistication in its menu and decor, the latter through blond wood and black leather, with a sweeping bar, a series of dining rooms, an all-weather patio and a small, three-season space.
That bar is covered with Texas limestone, and behind it, along with regular offerings, are 50 brands of tequila, available by the drink or in flights for tastings.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo, an upscale Mexican chain with nearly a dozen locations in Texas, opened its first Austin site three months ago in the new Second Street shopping and entertainment district on the ground floor of the AMLI building. The place has two things going for it: a location in a vibrant area and a sleek, stylish dining room that has the feel of a hip, urban environment.
That's good, because the one thing it doesn't have is food worth going there for.
...
Cantina Laredo has a lot of work to do. On average, the food there is merely acceptable, which merits neither a star nor a recommendation to drive across town to eat there.
The article notes:
Cantina Laredo is a Mexican restaurant that defies easy categorization. It's not your neighborhood Tex-Mex joint, where you head for a cheese-laden combo platter, endless bowls of chips and maybe a frozen margarita (or two or three). Nor does it quite qualify as a citadel of sophisticated Mexican cooking a la Rosa Mexicano.
Instead, Cantina Laredo aspires to be a mix of the two, appealing to a slightly upscale crowd but not one that wants to be too daring with its choice of cuisine. The result? An altogether different approach to south-of-the-border-style dining. Call it Suburban Mex.
...
Cantina is part of a growing nationwide chain, with more than 20 restaurants throughout the country. So its Suburban Mex formula may not be so new, after all. But the appeal is still there, provided you go in with the right expectations.
The article notes:
The restaurant is owned by local investors and Consolidated Restaurant Operations is a partner as well, in addition to being the operator, he said. “It’s a 50-50 partnership,” he said.
Cantina Laredo first opened in 1984 in Addison, Texas, a suburb of Dallas. There are 35 locations in the United States, with additional locations in Abu Dhabi and London.
The article notes:
True to its Orwellian-sounding name, Consolidated Restaurant Operations Inc. is a Texas-based corporation that operates more than 100 restaurants in the United States, the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt. Of those, more than 30 are Cantina Laredos and seven are III Forks steakhouses, each of which recently opened a Chicago location. The two-story behemoth that is Cantina Laredo takes up a good chunk of a city block near the finally-not-under-construction Grand Red Line stop, while a few blocks to the east...

Spoiler alert. This review contains details of the single worst dish the reviewer has yet encountered in her professional career. If you don't want to know the ending, or are reading this in the hope of finding a great new Mexican restaurant, look away now.
I didn't want to hate Cantina Laredo. Good Mexican food can be a wonderful thing, and the arrival in central London of an American institution serving "gourmet Mexican food" sounded like something to celebrate.
...
So trust me, I went to Cantina Laredo in the genuine hope of some vivid, authentic Mexican food. Founded in Dallas, the brand is already well established in the States. The London branch, operating under franchise, occupies a new development on the traffic-clogged edge of Covent Garden, just up the road from Stringfellows. Border country, in other words, patrolled by hungry travellers who have journeyed many miles by bridge and by tunnel in search of sustenance.
Cantina Laredo received significant coverage in a UK newspaper, The Independent. It has received persistent coverage between 1991 and 2017. It clearly passes Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline and Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies).
The result was keep. The consensus is that the subject of this article satisfies the general notability guideline on the basis of sources that are available which provide significant coverage. Mz7 ( talk) 06:10, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

I imagine there will be claims that the sporadic updates by largely regional sources constitutes "ongoing coverage". But really, it is WP:NOTNEWS and there wasn't any WP:INDEPTH analysis. This incident simply did not receive substantial national or international attention or historical significance. Heck, there weren't even any routine repercussions from the investigation or civil suit; the shooting was deemed justified. Of course, no one has to be charged to make an incident notable but it certainly would have created some case of significance in an otherwise unnotable event.

Defunct clothing line, whose notability is not asserted independently of its association with Donald Trump, therefore fails WP:PRODUCT.
A large section of the article is dedicated to a 2011 lawsuit, which could be briefly mentioned in Legal affairs of Donald Trump, as that article is currently silent on this particular case.
The rest covers marketing of the 2004 product launch, and campaign fodder from 2015/2016. This last bit may go into
Donald Trump presidential campaign, 2016, if it's not already there. That article now says that in 2015 Macy's announced it would phase out its Trump-branded merchandise
over Trump's comments about Mexicans, which seems a sufficient summary of what there is to know in relation to this brand. —
