[edit] Sun City Palm Desert, California
An article about a gated community in Riverside County, California. Doesn't assert notability, plus there is a city called Sun City in the county that is unrelated to this community, that has already caused confusion. While I assume good faith on the part of the author, this article should still be deleted. Danny Lilithborne 12:17, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
- Comment. I believe there is precedent for communities and neighborhoods to have their own articles, however. I don't know enough about this particular one to cast a vote myself. 23skidoo 12:24, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
- If that's true, then I should probably alter my vote, until I get enough information to make a fair vote. Danny Lilithborne 12:28, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. I can't see the notability. Metamagician3000 12:35, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
- Keep, real place. If we can have articles on neighborhoods in major cities, then housing developments of over 5000 homes should be kept as well. User:Zoe|(talk) 21:43, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. I wrote the article and I live here. This is a huge community and shows on all the tourist and real estate maps in the area. There is more than one Sun City. The community I wrote about is Sun City Palm Desert and is a community of nearly 5000 homes. There is also another Sun City near Hemet in Riverside County and yet another in Indio (also in Riverside County) called "Sun City Shadow Hills". I don't feel that Sun City Palm Desert should be deleted, rather, the Sun City near Hemet can simply be added with it's own article. When you have a community with over 10,000 residents, which is more than many incorporated cities in America that are recognized here, that should not simply be written off.

- Comment Can I withdraw a nomination? There's only one vote to delete here, and I already understand the reasoning. To Rchristananderson, there is an article for Sun City here. :) Danny Lilithborne 09:19, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- Comment Hi Danny.... yes, that article you refer to is the Sun City near Hemet, California, which is also in Riverside County. Besides the sheer size of Sun City Palm Desert, the main reason for the notability of it is the golf club, which is open to members who don't actually live in the community itself. Within the community is a huge "par 72", 36-hole regulation golf club. The course is known as "Mountain Vista". It was designed by former PGA Tour great and two-time PGA Player of the Year, Billy Casper and Greg Nash. The club is divided into 2 courses: The San Gorgonio (6,669 yards) course and the Santa Rosa (6,720 yards) course. This is one of the most significant courses in southern California and is only a few miles south east of the new Classic Golf club being built for the Internationally known Bob Hope Golf Classic.

- Delete not notable. --MaNeMeBasat 15:18, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Notable for 10,000 in population and the Mountain Vista Golf Club. Nearby Thousand Palms, California has a Wikipage and it's population is only half of this community. Here is an overview of the golf club from the Palm Springs.com website: [Mountain Vista Golf Club] --sandowmuseum 16:52, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
