I see this as WP:EXISTS and/or WP:TOOSOON. Googling Motiongate Dubai, I find several websites saying the theme park is open since December 2016, but besides a news article, there are no in-depth reviews I can find. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 22:18, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

- Keep - Much like Walt Disney Studios Park within Disneyland Paris, it is quite major and there has been extensive in-depth coverage and reviews, like from Arab News, The Daily Telegraph, Theme Park Insider and Saudi Gazette. [1][2][3][4] And these are just English language sources found in a few seconds of a topic in an Arabic-speaking nation. most certainly more native language sources exist and probably more in-depth. --Oakshade (talk) 01:34, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
- Keep Yes, I too found there was enough coverage per GNG. Maybe the confusion is about the nomination statement's "in-depth reviews" We don't need "reviews" necessarily. And the fact that we've one by the Independent in the UK, beyond Dubai, helps, too. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 02:32, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. It is a tourist attraction, which pretty much makes it notable (there has to exist coverage about it, and readers want to find out about it). (We need a wp:TOURISTATTRACTION, currently a redlink).--doncram 23:19, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- tourist attractions are not inherently notable. Stop inventing non existent notability criterion. If there is coverage you should show it WP:MUSTBESOURCES. LibStar (talk) 10:10, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
