The Seattle Film Critics seem to have floated in and out of existence without leaving a huge mark. The main article has been tagged for expansion for almost two years: it consists of a one-line intro, a list of the award category articles, and a list of the three award ceremony articles.

- Keep Took only a little digging. Pity the article was never sourced, but there is information out there... So I added these: Seattle Weekly" "Club Clash: it's not a circle per se, but an ad hoc group of 23 local critics invited to vote on annual awards". Early in 2008 it was thought the loose organization may be no more: seanax.com: "There is no more “Seattle Film Critics Awards,” and no formal body to put their stamp on the year in review as a group", but as late as May 2008 it was still around: seattle.gov: "Mike Caccioppoli of CinCity2000.com has acquired the interest of other local critics who have agreed to join the new Seattle Film Critics Association (SFCA)". I did find an announcement at "Women In Film" of its original creation and its founding members (near bottom of the page):"SEATTLE FILM CRITICS ASSOCIATION FORMED" with old phone number and email. It does seem to get press: seattlechannel.org: "An Evening With: Seattle Film Critics Wrap 2008". And it does get the word out: moviecitynews: "SEATTLE FILM CRITICS CIRCLE Complete 2004 List", altfg.com: "The 3rd Seattle Film Critics Award winners were announced on December 30, 2004", seattlepi.nwsource.com: "Local film critics find 'American Splendor' splendid". And more like it. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 18:46, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Seattle Film Critics per Schmidt and merge the rest. I'm satisfied by the notability of these awards, but it can all be quite comfortably contained within a single article. PC78 (talk) 19:40, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I have just expanded the article a bit to assert and show the notability. I agree that a group merge is in order... but the master article is now a keeper. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 20:10, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- And with a couple edit conflicts, PC78 and I were both over at the article merging the awards list into the main baody. So the eleven "lists" can now be deleted after the main article is kept.
I do think we should now inlude a Keep for the three sub-articles, Seattle Film Critics Awards 2002, Seattle Film Critics Awards 2003, and Seattle Film Critics Awards 2004.Schmidt, MICHAEL Q.
- I disagree, to be honest; those three articles don't say anything that isn't now covered in the main one. Redirect all, I say. PC78 (talk) 20:49, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- You're right. I agree that redirects to the main article best serve Wiki. Good point. Thank you. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 20:51, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
