*I'm in two minds about this. The current article is much better written than many I could name, and there are additional sources available - the [http://www.bbc.co.uk/manchester/content/articles/2005/03/18/160705_trial_davros_event_feature.shtml BBC], [http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/09/10/daleks_invade_blackpool/ The Register] and the [http://menmedia.co.uk/tamesideadvertiser/news/s/385076_guess_whos_going_to_appear_on_stage Tameside Advertiser] all covered it around the time of the 2005 performance, and there should be more offline if anyone knows where to look (local paper archives from 1993?). But I can't quite shake off a nagging feeling that this might not be enough to pass [[WP:GNG]], although one more in-depth source would probably convince me.

  • Note: It's not accurate to say that there are no RS. There's a link to a BBC News interview with Terry Molloy in which he discusses the play. It's debatable whether this constitutes "significant coverage" per GNG#1, but it's clearly a reliable source. --Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 05:42, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but there is no significant coverage to satisfy GNG. Jezhotwells (talk) 07:23, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm in two minds about this. The current article is much better written than many I could name, and there are additional sources available - the BBC, The Register and the Tameside Advertiser all covered it around the time of the 2005 performance, and there should be more offline if anyone knows where to look (local paper archives from 1993?).
