Mayberry Cafe

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Not notable: Sourced only to a restaurant review article in a local paper. Every restaurant gets reviewed by a local paper, so that's nothing special. Its "relationship" with The Andy Griffith Show is parasitic. I could just as easily open a bar called "Rick's Café Américain," decorate it accordingly, and claim it's notable because a bar by the same name appears in the movie Casablanca. The claim that two cast members have visited the restaurant isn't sourced and isn't material anyway. Famous people do not confer notability on the places they visit.

Delete, basically for the reasons advanced at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Frank and Mary's Restaurant and Lounge, about another article created by the same user. I can't find sufficient substantive treatment in secondary sources to indicate that this satisfies WP:CORP. Deor (talk) 02:02, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – unnotable; I cannot find any reliable third-party sources backing up the notability of this article. —MC10 (T•C•GB•L) 05:18, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete not because it isn't official but because it's extraordinarily non-notable. Claiming that the guy who played Goober ate there once is a strong contender for weakest claim to notability I've seen in a Wikipedia article. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:27, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete non-notable and "parasitic." Clubmarx (talk) 05:36, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
