Was the recreation all your own work, or was it based on the previous deleted version (if so, we need to ask an admin for a histmerge)? Stuartyeates (talk) 20:55, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Based on previous deleted version, so a histmerge would be appropriate. Kopf1988 (talk)

I've tagged it now. The easy way to do this is to ask for it to be moved to Draft: or User: space at Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion. Stuartyeates (talk) 23:08, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Future Sections[edit]

It would be nice to see more conventions move towards B, A, and GA class articles. To do so, here are a few more possible sections that can be used for this one.

Reception: Focusing on reviews and news coverage and mentions in popular culture.
Attendance: Analyzing the average audience of the event.
Venue: And how it affects or relates to the convention

Programming / Content[edit]

I re-added several sections about the programming and content of the event - these are sections I believe every convention's articles should have, detailing more about the conventions. Disclosure: I run the con. I would like to see every convention's article get this long, and I have in the past added sections to other cons' pages. Kopf1988 (talk) 01:51, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
