[edit] Church Street

The author of this article created a whole series of spam Street articles, which I nominated for speedy and were removed. However, he added an extra sentence of information here, which prevented it from being speedied. I highly doubt we need articles on any streets except perhaps the most notable, like Wall Street.

• Comment - I disagree. I think principal streets of major towns, cities, and the main neighbourhoods in large cities are noteworthy. I don't know enough about this particular example to know if it meets that level, but I think it may well be salvageable in principle. AlexTiefling 14:08, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as streets aren't inherently notable. At the least needs sourcing, expanding claim of notability, and a page move because Church Street is one of the most popular names for a street in the UK and there are plenty of them. MLA 14:55, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete and Redirect to Church and Wellesley which is the redirect of Church Street (Toronto) unless it needs to be made into a disambig. WilyD 17:07, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete "Church Street" to me means the one in my hometown of Fredericton, New Brunswick, which is fairly minor anyway. :) Maybe if Wikipedia expands tenfold again and more individual street articles show up, we could do it and make this a dab or something. Kirjtc2 17:11, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - San Francisco's Church Street is the one and only "Church Street" to me. Capit 23:19, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - it's trying to be an historic neighborhood article but with no references and only one notable outlink, meh. Smerge with Norfolk, perhaps. --Dhartung | Talk 05:42, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, significant street. JYolkowski // talk 23:51, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
