Not notable. References in local media only. Cusop Dingle (talk) 19:50, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
- Keep - and the "Local" clause in WP:N is where? Besides that, as reliable independant sources say " [When it] opened in 1970, Captain John's was the city's first floating restaurant."[1] it passes WP:N as we know notability is not fleeting.

- Keep the "Local" media issue only applies in specific cases related to references to academics in the media, it is not a general rule against all local media references.John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:12, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
- Speedy keep – Per ongoing coverage in reliable sources & WP:NTEMP. References being local in nature is not a valid argument for deletion.

- Comment The issue is significant coverage. Being mentioned in the local paper is not significant. Being the first floating restaurant in one particular city is not notable. (First in the world, yes: first in Toronto, no.) Cusop Dingle (talk) 07:28, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
