There has clearly been a concerted attempt to remove all the copypaste and promotional text from the article over several years. But what is left is not about Mardis Gras World as a whole. I can't see anything other than listings pages and travel reviews online. perhaps it is time for the article to go, or be redirected to
Kern Studios. Fails
WP:GNG.

Strong Keep. The notability of Mardi Gras World has been as a public museum, and party venue, as well as store house for NOLA parades. Plus, recent news continues (see:
Google news links), even 5 years after article was created in October 2011. -

Nomination withdrawn, on the basis of the couple of lengthy news articles
[1][2] that can be dug out of the Google search above. And I agree the fact sociologists in Finland use it as an example suggests it is known beyond the USA too. Thanks for the input.
