[edit] Places of interest in Bermuda

I was trying to come up with a useful way to clean up this article but came to the conclusion it probably should just be deleted. No other country has a 'Places of interest' article, and it seems to be an arbitrary list. Some of the items in the list may be noteworth enough for their own articles, but without being able to come up with a better solution for this list I'm going to have to nominate it for deletion. I would happily support something like a merge if someone can think of a useful way to do it, though. Arkyan 00:24, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Comment - Make the list a real list with bullets, then merge it with Bermuda. Endomion 00:39, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment . I agree with Endomion, just do a merge. -- JJay 01:11, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep or merge per above. -- JJay 02:13, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. As these places get articles of their own, they may be mentioned in the "See also" list at Bermuda as popular tourist destinations, but being a tourist guide should not be an objective of articles on places. JoaoRicardotalk 02:07, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep (or merge; don't delete). There are countless "Visitor attractions in X" and "Tourist attractions in X" articles in Wikipedia (contrary to what nominator says). I've cleaned up the format and renamed it to Visitor attractions in Bermuda. --Quarl 02:30, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Have a look at it now that I've dealt to it a little... Grutness...wha? 02:37, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Very nice job. Thanks. -- JJay 02:40, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Thanks - another thing - please dont' move to "Tourist attractions", because several of the places listed aren't. Nonsuch Island, for instance, is a nature reserve which tourists aren't allowed to visit, and Tucker's Town Peninsula has restricted entry to only the billionaires who own land there (lucky for some...). Grutness...wha? 02:45, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Places of "interest" is POV, and this smells of WP:NOR. --Apostrophe 05:18, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment: at least there should be very short description for every item to avoid every restaurant owner adding his put there. Pavel Vozenilek 05:58, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
    • There should be - I only had half an hour or so to do this earlier. But a brief description is a good idea - I've made a small start on it. Grutness...wha? 09:06, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Wow, someone has put a lot of work into this and it certainly looks a lot nicer! I do think it is a bit bloated and would be better served by dividing it up and merging it either back into the main Bermuda article or one of the sub-articles in some form or another. Therefore I would like to retract my nomination of this article for deletion and instead propose it be merged into the appropriate articles, but I would await more consensus on the matter before hacking it into pieces.

  • Keep - very nice work, just another list. Renata3 21:31, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
