[edit] Water Taxi Beach

Orphan article on obscure commercial operation. Probably astroturf advertisement/spam. --Mecanismo 21:21, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep - real place, actual location, although I would consider renaming to Water Taxi Beach, New York to avoid confusion. There may well be other Water Taxi Beaches. The idea of a "temporary beach" doesn't sound common or not. How unusual it is is actually what makes it more encyclopaedic, not less. Something being unique or revolutionary is very notable. It meets the criteria in terms of media coverage too [1], [2], [3], indeed there is a whole page full of news reviews here [4]. Its almost like trying to argue that Vienna isn't really worth an article since not many people visit there. Uniqueness guys. Sheesh.

• Weak keep per Zordrac. Stifle 21:06, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand, or at least merge with Long Island City, Queens. -- JJay 01:30, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
