Not news[edit]

As tagged on the article, this is not news, it's an invitation to a weekly meeting. As such, it does not belong on a news site. If there is some news that can be added to make it a news story, please do so. StuRat 18:45, 30 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

This meets every definition of news. The question is how to treat it here (to keep it off the Main Page). I believe there is a way --> [[Category:Local Only]], initiated by CmWhite. -Edbrown05 18:58, 30 August 2005 (UTC)Reply
And yeah. The invitational, rather than reporting, aspect of the story is objectionable. -Edbrown05 19:06, 30 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

Isn't there also a need for there to be something new in "news" ? What is new about a description of an ongoing event ? I suppose the change of location was news (although of interest only locally), when it occurred. StuRat 19:40, 30 August 2005 (UTC)Reply
