Talk:List of law firms

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hey! Where did this article go? Did the big, bad deletionists kill it? --Nelson Ricardo 21:38, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes they did. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of law firms --Legis (talk - contributions) 20:42, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, Legis. I see there was no consensus, which by Wikipedia guidelines mean the article stays. Unfortunately some deletionist admin with an itchy trigger finger has ignored the will of the people. --Nelson Ricardo 20:53, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, my error in posting the link. It was listed twice - first time was "no conensus", result of second discussion was "delete", see - Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of law firms (2nd nomination). But I think that the decision was a judgment on the development of the page as much as anything (although there was also concern with overlap with Category:Law firms. I think if the new page is kept under control nobody would object too much to it being recreated (see List of largest UK law firms which survived a AfD nomination). Last time the page just got overwhelmed by lawyers posting spam links, and every tiny firm of Sue, Grabbit & Runne trying to post an article about themselves. --Legis (talk - contributions) 16:13, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. Those were some very weak arguements for deletion on that page. --Nelson Ricardo 20:36, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Don't Delete

This is not the same article that was previously deleted (in bad faith and for specious reasons, I might add). The firms listed in this article are from a reputable source. They are listed because they meet certain criteria. The deleted article was a mish mosh that included advertising links and firms at random. --Nélson Ricardo 11:30, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

As an admin, I reviewed the article and I don't think it fits the {{db-repost}} (CSD G4) as designed. No prejudice against a new AfD. Duja► 11:47, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
