Fails WP:NONPROFIT, WP:NORG. Neighborhood libraries/bookstores/infoshops like this one is generally not notable. Graywalls (talk) 21:49, 8 October 2020 (UTC) [reply ]

• Delete as lacks notability. Could be in an article about the neighborhood. Balle010 (talk) 02:16, 9 October 2020 (UTC) [reply ]
• Delete. As noted, independent bookstores aren't automatically notable just because they exist — it's certainly possible for an independent bookstore to clear the bar if it has enough reliable source coverage about it to pass WP:GNG, but that hasn't been shown here: of the five weblinks being shown as sources, three are Blogspot blogs and one is an archived e-mail message on a listserv, none of which are reliable or notability-supporting sources — and while one citation is to a real newspaper article, one of those is not enough all by itself. And on a ProQuest search for older sourcing that may not Google, I got absolutely nothing useful: even searching "Insoumise Montreal" to filter out hits on La France Insoumise, I got just 21 hits of which about half were still about La France Insoumise rather than this, and the ones that were about this were just glancing namechecks of its existence (e.g. as a film screening venue in the movie listings) rather than notability-building coverage. And while the French article has a couple more sources than ours does, it still depends mainly on unreliable sources and student media rather than strong coverage — only one footnote (La Presse) that could be copied over from there actually meets a GNG-worthy standard, and even two newspaper articles still isn't enough.

• Weak delete. I've perused the links from the version in other languages. For the unaffiliated/non-primary sources, the bookstore was only covered in brief mentions. Same for a Google Books and Google News search. But then there's stuff like this Canadian alt weekly and Le Devoir. I'd be interested if someone has French-language sources we've missed.
