[edit] Beaver Canyon

Beaver Canyon (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Doesn't meet guidelines for notability. This would be a good article for a Penn State wiki or something along that line. Mithunc (talk) 10:24, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

  • keep notable enough with the one reference, lots of people go to that school and know about this, it might me mentioned in a publication and someone might wanna look it up and what better place to inform yourself than wikipedia for the sum of all human knowledge.SuperSuperBoi (talk) 11:13, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge to State College, Pennsylvania as it doesn't merit a standalone article under Wikipedia:Notability (streets and roads) but would enhance the parent city article in an edited form. - Dravecky (talk) 12:42, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
    • Follow-up The once cited reference does not even glancingly mention the term "Beaver Canyon" so the article is in fact essentially unreferenced. - Dravecky (talk) 12:44, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete None notable section of a street that is near a school. AlbinoFerret (talk) 12:47, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. A Google search does turn up some sources, but they mostly relate to the misbehavior of students at the location and are from the college and local newspapers. I'm not seeing anything that would establish wider notability. I suppose a mention could be included in State College, Pennsylvania, but I don't know where—this hardly seems a "point of interest."

Also, there appears to be a possibly notable Beaver Canyon in Utah, and it would be nice if the title were available should anyone decide to write an article on it. Deor (talk) 13:03, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - no references to establish notability -- Whpq (talk) 13:20, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete I'm an alumni and I don't recall ever hearing the term before. Sources seem thin on the ground. At best it's a non-notable regional colloquialism. Debate (talk) 14:30, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
