[edit] Witchwood
Reads like an advertisement. Andrew pmk 18:17, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep If all schools are notable then most certainly all pubs are ;-). --Lomedae 19:21, August 16, 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: If it really does date back to 1780, why not? But the content is copied from the pub's site. Gazpacho 19:43, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- Copyvio from [1]. I don't have time, but someone should list it as such. Best to put it there than having it clog VfD. Sdedeo 20:28, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- Done. -Splash 22:01, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete if a new article is written. I don't see the slightest similarity between pubs and schools. -Splash 22:01, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- Comment Allow me to clarify Splash, as a group of people are making a point in trying to have every school in the telephone directory included in Wikipedia, I see no valid way anyone could object to having an entry for all bars/pubs in the world. A bar is just as notable to a small social group of people as a school is. So, it's a bar and ergo I vote keep. --Lomedae 22:15, August 16, 2005 (UTC)
- That only works if you agree that we should keep every school in the telephone directory, and I do not. -Splash 22:17, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- People trying to include schools are not doing to make a point, we are doing it to make wikipedia a more valuable and comprehensive encyclopedia. Kappa 23:12, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- If someone has a problem with some schools being added, then vote Delete on those schools articles. Maybe if enough editors feel the same way and vote, fewer school articles will be kept and using schools to lower the bar for all articles would not be up for discussion.

Keep, notable brewery, have pubs across the UK. If an article reads like an advert or contains copyvio, {{sofixit}} rather than wasting VfD space. --zippedmartin 00:04, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

- Ehehe, that'd be Wychwood. Suggest redirect to that, if we had an article on them. --zippedmartin 00:19, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and re-write. Trollderella 01:35, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
