Nonnotable apartment building. Advertising. Zoe 06:25, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

This is not advertising. I live in them. Altitude is a apartment block for students to live in and it would be nice if there is a record of the people who have ran it, any notable events that take place there, and what the place is like, so that one day we can lookback and see the history of the building. Do you propose that we delete en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ormond_College_(University_of_Melbourne), en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ's_College,_Cambridge etc.... I realize that Altitude is newish, as in the last couple of years, but it would still be nice to keep a history of the place on wikipedia. Well, I don't really know how this voting system works, but it would be nice to keep the Altitude at Taringa Apartments page. Just my two cents.

A place where students live is not notable. Where did I even suggest deleting the University pages? You're making strawman arguments. Please explain what makes this apartment building more important than any other apartment building in the world. Zoe 07:00, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

I guess I misunderstand the concept of Wikipedia. The building is not notable as you correctly state. So it should be deleted if this is one of the criteria for deletion. What about the fact that it is not advertising, does this have a higher weighting over "non notable"? For future reference, can you please direct me to where to look to understand if something fits the criteria to be added to Wikipedia. Many thanks for your kind help in getting me started in Wikipedia and telling me what is acceptable to add to it.

Thanks for being understanding. You can start with What Wikipedia is not. Zoe 07:27, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. nn, tho' not advertising. I note however this is a better article than the Taringa State School, which it refers to as being on the site of. Alf 11:05, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, but I would encourage the editor to contribute to wikipedia - earlier, when I was new to wikipedia, few articles created by me were also deleted. So, cheers! --Bhadani 05:33, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Apartment buildings are not notable. Sometimes, neighborhoods of such buildings may be. Sjakkalle (Check!) 10:12, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
