I believe this business fails to meet the standards set in WP:GNG 1keyhole (talk) 12:02, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Food and drink, Business, and Scotland. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 12:19, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. The article is better now that I added some references. Usually you can find additional references for any restaurant with a Michelin star. Лисан аль-Гаиб (talk) 13:34, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comments about Michelin stars and notability:
  • There was a long, rambling discussion of Michelin stars and notability at
    • Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 284#RFC on Michelin stars as a reliable source for notability of restaurants
    • The discussion was never closed with a positive or negative conclusion
  • I did a search for Michelin+star+notability in Wikipedia space and looked at a sample of about a dozen AfDs for restaurants with Michelin stars. Only one restaurant with a star was deleted; other AfDs closed as either “keep” or “no consensus”.
    • If you run this search yourself, be aware you’ll turn up additional AfDs for restaurants that didn’t have stars. Michelin stars were brought up for some reason such as, “but if it did have a Michelin star…”

Keep There are a few sources already given that discuss the establishment, and some in Gsearch as well. Oaktree b (talk) 14:56, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment It looks as if it no longer has a Michelin star,[1] gone in 2011.[2] in my view this shouldn't directly affect notability. Thincat (talk) 10:41, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep (as creator). In addition to the sources contributed by others, I've added some more and added some additional facts to give a better sense of the place. Best, - Jarry1250 ^{[Vacation needed]} 17:00, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge into Champany, Falkirk. While the subject is notable, the article is a premature spinout from the hamlet, where the hotel and restaurant are the only establishments. Champany Inn is not even mentioned in the body of that stub! gidonb (talk) 07:33, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Can everyone else live with merging as a compromise? It would preserve the content, while strengthening the microstub on the hamlet. Please react below! Pinging 1keyhole, Лисан аль-Гаиб, A. B., Oaktree b, Thincat, and Jarry1250. gidonb (talk) 09:55, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge is fine Oaktree b (talk) 13:43, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge would be a good thing to do (but I have no problem with keep). Thincat (talk) 20:24, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
