[edit] Ashford-Dunwoody Road

Ashford-Dunwoody Road (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Is this road article notable nationally?? I suggest someone should be able to explain this article's notability for a non-local encyclopedia. Georgia guy 22:37, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete It's as the article says - a long road between Ashford and Dunwoody. It's not notable, unlike Peachtree Street. Acroterion (talk) 22:46, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete...This is just a road and roads are not inherently notable Corpx 06:54, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment A proposed guideline at WP:N/HWY is being discussed right now. If this article has history and sources, it is best kept. (→zelzany - review) 15:26, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
    • I don't think this ever was more than a generic two-lane road partially widened into a suburban arterial. I can't find any mentions that are not directories or driving directions. --NE2 15:56, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete- Not a numbered highway, not an expressway, not a freeway, not notable, not worthy of an article. —Scott5114↗ 16:26, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, just a generic road with no state-level designation. I'm not even sure this road is notable within Atlanta, much less nationwide. --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 19:19, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, if the street was a former major numbered road, I would say keep, but this stubby article does not mention this, therefore it does not belong in wikipedia. -- JA10 Talk • Contribs 22:23, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Georgia (U.S. state)-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 02:58, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Based on other's input, I will have to say delete, because there are no reliable sources to establish its notability. There is also the fact that it's not a former numbered road, but that's part of the sourcing. A long road that does not have any historical significance does not need to be mentioned in an encyclopedia. (→zelzany - review) 20:04, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. This road isn't numbered by the state, nor any type of freeway/expressway. It may or may not be notable within Atlanta, however, until there are reliable sources to establish this road's significance, I don't see a need for the article's existence. --myselfalso 23:47, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Just a road. Someguy1221 04:32, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
