Taco salad (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Procedural nomination, in accordance with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Acar. The result of that AFD was to relist all Therefore I am relisting all the articles that were up for deletion on that AFD. I am clearly neutral as this is a Procedural nomination. —— Eagle101 ^{Need help?} 03:37, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

• Keep This article can clearly be expanded upon. I think just about anyone who's ever visited a Taco Bell or an On the Border has heard of a taco salad. --NMChico24 03:44, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. Searching google for "taco salad" reveals more hits than for "sweetbread" (a random, definitely notable food I chose for comparison purposes). --N Shar 04:59, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep: Notable food, though the article could use expansion. Heimstern Läufer 07:50, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. Notable enough. Wavy G 08:28, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Strong keep -- Article could use expansion, but this is a popular food  Tuvok^^{Talk|Desk|Contribs}  08:57, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

  This signature is horridly long and sorta messing up my browser window. GassyGuy 13:34, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

• Keep per the first two voters. Mathmo ^Talk 11:23, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Merge to salad (under the "other types of salad section). Yes, they're popular, and yes, I'm sure they have Google presence (in no small part because a lot of folks want to sell them) but unless it can be expanded well beyond where it is, there's really no point in having a separate article. GassyGuy 13:34, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. The history of Taco Salads as an inauthentic yanqui fast-food abomination gives this a lot of potential as an article. Artw 16:34, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Strong keep I've seen this in almost every food court -- Selmo ^(talk) 17:14, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep This article shows promise for expansion. Perhaps history and culture sections may be appropriate. Navou ^banter / _{review me} 18:10, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect into either salad or taco. There is no reason why taco salad should have its own article. It's merely a deconstructed taco. Something that is a derivative of another food that is non-notable enough to be described in one sentence does not need its own article. Hobbeslover ^{talk/contribs} 19:35, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Since "taco salad" is neither a taco nor a typical salad. It is a notable dish in its own right, with 582,000 Google hits, so there should be lots of material to improve and extent the article. It already has enough references to satisfy the basic requirements. Inkpaduta 22:46, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Keep Taco salad is important and delicious. Bigpoogenerator 05:33, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep and afk, going to Taco Bell. This made me hungry. Nardman1 17:16, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep and expand per the comments above. If possible, speedy keep and put an end to this procedural-yet-pointless listing. RFerreira 08:43, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
