[edit] United States/Gallery of Cities
WP:NOT -> Wikipedia is not a mirror or a repository of ...images... Basically I don't really see anything encyclopedic or beneficial to having this page. Delete. RJH 19:32, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. The images belong on the city pages. Zoe 20:24, August 15, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I think that a picture gallery of cities is very encyclopedic. But I would suggest that many of the cities that have old pictures that date back to circa 1890, 1907, 1910's must be replaced with updated images. --Gramaic | Talk 04:55, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: See previous discussion of this subpage at Talk:United States#City pics. -- Visviva 02:55, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete: The idea is interesting but a single image is not enough, and there are over 200 cities likely to be added. I did use this gallery to initialize Category:Images of cities of the United States, where the present small number of cities is apparent. Image galleries are already set up under Wikipedia:List of images. (SEWilco 07:36, 17 August 2005 (UTC))
- Comment: Note that those images which are unlicensed can not be used in List of images. (SEWilco 07:38, 17 August 2005 (UTC))
- Delete. Don't see any point to having such a gallery. Perhaps an individual gallery for each city though. Kaldari 22:16, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Image galleries like this one are a Commons or category thing, and subpages are against policy anyway. Bryan 07:42, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
