[edit] Kensington Square & "kensington square"

Tagged on Jun 16 but not listed on VfD. No vote.--Nabla 21:30, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)

On Google, searching "Kensington Square" + "Montreal" gives 279 hits, most not pertinent. "Kensington Square" + "Montreal" + "jazz" gives 94 hits, several of which are local messageboards ("look up Kensington Square it's a Montreal jazz-rock band that's amazing they'll make it big soon") and music festivals. I am not sure what WP:MUSIC would say on this; they seem to be locally well-known, but barely under the bar of notability. I say weak delete, but could easily be persuaded otherwise. jglc | t | c 19:39, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Comments See "kensington square" for a duplicate entry of this article. Possibly an attempted bypass of a vfd. I added a vfd on that article to link here. — oo64eva (Alex) ^{(U | T | C)} @ 19:57, Jun 16, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Non-notable band. — P Ingerson (talk) 21:33, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• I'm pretty sure that's in London. Delete & redirect there if that is so. Radiant_>|< 22:35, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect. Radiant's right. It is in London, but doesn't need this to be a whole article since it's just a part of the city. -Splash 23:04, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
  • Where to? We don't have an article on Kensington Square. We do have one on Trafalgar square, though. So some of them can be noteworthy. - Mgm|^(talk) 08:34, Jun 25, 2005 (UTC)
  • I meant Kensington Square→London. Trafalgar Square is of standalone relevance - Kensington Sq. is more just an area than a place. -Splash 14:05, Jun 25, 2005 (UTC)
    • If you're going to redirect, try Kensington. But I don't the Square itself is notable enough for that. Would you want to create the precedent that every non-notable street deserves its own redirect? — P Ingerson (talk) 10:57, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • No, I would deeply not want that kind of precedent. But Kensington Square is pretty well known (where I'm from, anyway, which isn't even London). However, by way of reference to Mgm's comment, Trafalgar Square is much more famous in its own right that Kensignton Sq. is. -Splash 14:06, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete non notable band. JamesBurns 03:49, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete one Both articles "Kensington Square" and "kensington square" contain similar information. Surprisingly, the famous London sector is not mentionned. The fact it is a band is secondary. Some knowledgeable user should write about the place Kensington Square in the article. -Nitrov 21:58, Jul 4, 2005 (UTC)
