The article fails to address WP:GNG with reliable sources. Checking GBooks, the Grasdorf Plates are mentioned in a couple of sensationalist books such as "Almanac of the Infamous, the Incredible, and the Ignored"[1] which are in the business of puffing up poorly sourced UFO encounters into something that the incredulous might want to buy and tales of these events in dubious sources are not a rationale for encyclopaedic notability unless with verifiable wider impact. I find no impact on GNews and no evidence in the sources available that the plates were authenticated as being of historic interest or more than modern fakes. (talk) 12:26, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Its a legitimate mystery. Article needs to be improved, not deleted/
