The original article was deleted because it appeared to be an advertisement. I would like for this page to return so that I could add reliable sources about this theater, as well as the theater under its former name, "The Miracle Theater". For example, the theater was mentioned in a [https://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/16/travel/escapes/16rituals.html New York Times article back in 2009]. Also, the theater's former show--The Miracle--was discussed in depth in a [http://archive.knoxnews.com/business/refining-the-religious-message-ep-412117314-359999101.html/ local article back in 2008]. As for the Theater's current brand--"Smoky Mountain Opry", there are numerous sources that connected the old Miracle Theater to the current brand, including a recent post on [http://www.insidepigeonforge.com/entertainment/theaters/the-miracle-theater/ Inside Pigeon Forge]. Plus, there are [https://www.google.com/search?biw=1266&bih=803&tbm=nws&ei=c7jBWofyNIfCzgKqzY7wDA&q=%22Smoky+Mountain+Opry%22+-leak&oq=%22Smoky+Mountain+Opry%22+-leak&gs_l=psy-ab.3...6211.8529.0.8673.15.12.3.0.0.0.78.450.12.12.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..0.1.36...0.0.zj02TcMX_k0 many other articles that discuss the Theater's current events]. Unfortunately, the Smoky Mountain Opry [https://www.google.com/search?biw=1266&bih=803&tbm=nws&ei=fbjBWqyWBcvazwLimrSwBQ&q=%22Smoky+Mountain+Opry%22&oq=%22Smoky+Mountain+Opry%22&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0.45956.46305.0.46473.3.3.0.0.0.0.43.104.3.3.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..0.2.61....0.A6Uqws_hj7E faced notoriety in 2018 for a gas leak that hospitalized three employees, one of which became dead].

• I don't think undeleting this would be a good idea at all; it was indeed quite promotional (I'd have honored the G11 tag instead of taking it to AFD), and was primarily written by a sockpuppeteer originally banned for extensive copyright infringements. You're of course welcome to write a new article making a better case for its notability, especially since the AFD is so old. —Cryptic 05:47, 2 April 2018 (UTC)
• The page was quite promotional and does smell as if it's been copied from somewhere - as noted the creator was a serial plagiarist. [http://www.conservapedia.com/Smoky_Mountain_Opry This Conservapedia page] is copying the deleted version if you want to get an idea of what it's like. I think you'd be better off writing something else from scratch if you think it's notable. Hut 8.5 16:12, 2 April 2018 (UTC)
