[edit] 20th Century Theatre

20th Century Theatre (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Non-notable building in Juneau, AK; references do not support notability; it once housed a possibly notable organ that isn't even there anymore. ~1800 Google hits are trivial. Dmz5 19:16, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

• If a source could be found that demonstrated the building's historical or local importance I'd be all for keeping it, but just because it was built a long time ago doesn't make it inherently notable, especially given the apparent architectural changes it's gone through.--Dmz5 19:19, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I don't believe it's notable enough. TSO1D 05:07, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Every town has a few old theatres about, I don't see much to make this one special. --Brianyoumans 05:49, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, if the organ was still there and it wasn't renovated, maybe, but as it stands... nope. SkierRMH,07:03, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. Having spent some time in Alaska, I can honestly say that a movie house built in 1940 and before statehood is considered "historic" in that state. I can understand why an editor thought it worthy to create an article about it. --Oakshade 02:42, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Point taken, but it seems to me that we still need to find references - I was unsuccessful. That "many Alaksans" might consider the building historic simply because of its age is not exactly a reason to keep it here, unless we can locate a newspaper article or something that says just that. Otherwise, it's just another building, and probably not the only one in Juneau that is 60 years old.--Dmz5 21:24, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
