[edit] Bellair Plaza
Non-notable strip mall in Florida. Claims to be the largest in its region, but doesn't back up that claim with any third party sources. I emphasize the fact that it's a strip mall -- almost never has a strip mall ever survived AfD. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 23:36, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete simply because no strip mall article deserves to live without a damn good reason. Why not an article for every apartment complex, too, which are likely more impactful? Pharmboy 00:04, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Merge to Daytona Beach, not quite notable or large enough for an individual article.--JForget 02:06, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Boy, you guys are brutal. I was led to believe this was going to be a "discussion" page - I was not expecting the Spanish Inquisition. I guess I will just stick with WikiTravel. Gamweb 03:54, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per - not notable enough. As said, we don't have articles for every apartment complex, and the same goes for strip malls. Actual shopping malls (indoor) are different. To Gamweb: Wikipedia is not meant to be a dedicated travel site. When it comes to locations, Wikipedia gives an overview.

- You appear to have misconceptions what is in WikiTravel. Shopping Malls/Centers do not have their own separate pages; I was surprised when I saw they had their own pages in Wikipedia. Sorry if I offended anyone. Go ahead and delete the page, by all means. Gamweb 18:08, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

- No offense taken, at least not on my part. Please don't think that getting an article deleted means that we're all trying to yell at you or something. It's just the process of cleaning up Wikipedia to follow the guidelines and policy. If you see any other articles that are similar in manner, in other words, strip malls that don't assert the importance of having their own article, please bring it to someone's attention, or suggest a deletion yourself. A merge is also possible, sometimes. --Pilotboi / talk / contribs 00:00, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
