Delete Not notable, No third party refs. Acebulf (talk) 04:25, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The article is about a college awards program whose logo is trademarked and which holds the record for largest student-produced awards show in the United States. The EVVYs have also been featured in the Boston Globe, whose archives cannot be seen on the internet without a fee, but which can be seen here Snonovan (talk) 21:23, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The sources are there. The award is apparently notable enough that people who receive one will list it on their resume. Not to mention that someone else modeled their awards after the Evvys and CBS is listing the award on their Young and the Restless's Honors & Awards Page.

Comment Of the 4 sources, the first is to the official site (primary source), the 2nd appears to be a reprint of a press release (primary source), the 3rd points to IMDB trivia (not considered a reliable source per Wikipedia:Citing IMDb). Only the fourth which is from the student newspaper is a reasonable reference here, but even that doesn't show notablility. These references do not equal significant coverage in 3rd party source and do not meet WP:N as a result.--RadioFan2 (talk) 21:38, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not notable enough, "show" put on by a student club at a single school. Those looking for references should note that this isn't even the most notable thing called "EVVY Awards": there's a fashion award by that name, and some Texas Rangers thing. What's left over is very paltry, coverage-wise. Bottom line, this is not a notable event. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 10:35, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Emerson College. Lists of awards on resumes and a mention in a PR release from a TV network publicist are insufficient evidence for notability. It seems like a big deal at Emerson, but I've been living in Boston for almost 20 years and never heard of them. Adequate sources are not there. Flying Jazz (talk) 15:42, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge I don't think many people will be looking for them without knowing the College. Possibly Redirect as well, just in case. Peridon (talk) 21:43, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
