[edit] Pemberton Avenue

THis road survived a VFD with a group of a few more notable roads in a group nomination. This one isn't notable just a three block street with alot of red links and should have been deleted see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Toronto-area roads (group 2) so Im relisting this one again but without the others Delete --JAranda | yeah 00:14, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, article spends more time discussing the location than the street. Streets are not places, they are pieces of infrastructure created for the purpose of transportation. If you want to acknowledge the existence of a street then do so in an article about the infrastructure network or local transportation, not in an article about a single piece of that system. This only fragments better articles into a bunch of pieces here and there. --maclean25 01:52, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

  • Really? It's not even a significant part of those topics... Bearcat 04:06, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Ok, now I admittedly only lived in Toronto for a 18 months, but I can't even find this as I sit here looking on a map. Xoloz 06:10, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
  • I entirely agree that it's deletable (I already voted so above), but I think it's problematic to use "but I can't find it on the map" as the primary grounds for a deletion vote; it potentially opens the door to somebody pointing out its map location as a priori grounds for a keep vote. I'm not going to do that, because I agree that it's non-notable, but I for one do know where it is on the map. Bearcat 17:59, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, non-notable street. I have enough faith in Xoloz's eyesight to accept his lack-of-finding-on-a-map, especially since Google Maps has a hard time finding it too and a Google search says that there's nothing notable about it. Good enough for me. Lord Bob 14:40, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
