Redirect to Royston,_Hertfordshire#Popular_culture where it's mentioned. However if consensus evolves that that's not a good ATD, suggest trimming the mention there. Star Mississippi 17:09, 30 June 2023 (UTC)Switching to delete, per the below. Didn't realize it wasn't an existing mention. Star Mississippi 18:21, 30 June 2023 (UTC)- The mention there was added by the original author of this article. Given they probably have a COI, I'd lean towards full removal. - UtherSRG (talk) 17:28, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
- Whoops, should have checked that history. Makes sense to remove then as I find no other indication it is large enough to merit a mention. Star Mississippi 18:21, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

- Merge/redirect to Royston,_Hertfordshire: The coverage which can be found is local in scope and I agree that it cannot demonstrate sufficient notability for an article, but I do think that the inclusion of the information (supported by sources around Creative Royston and affiliated organisations, as well as the local council [1]) enhances the understanding of the town's cultural activities. The information would be better distinguished in an Amenities section though, rather than "Popular Culture" which tends to be a collection of minor associations. AllyD (talk) 07:48, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
- Delete non notable organization's promotional fluff. We must be cautious before recommending addition of trivial contents into a location page like town/city. Graywalls (talk) 23:47, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
