[edit] Fa Pao

Fa Pao (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Non-notable tower; the festival it's used in is red linked so I doubt its notability. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 20:31, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

References added. Please read the Tin Hau Festival and Fa Pau is shown in this page should one not know about the heritage over hundreds of years. — HenryLi (Talk) 23:40, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Comment. If you see one-sentence articles as a problem then the solution is to add more sentences. Phil Bridger (talk) 09:33, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Sorry for the short page. Please note that WP:1S is not a policy but some contributors' opinion only. On the contrary, the article does not fall into any deletion category in WP:DEL after the improvement. It takes time to improve and need help from experts in the religion, culture or anthropology of South China. — HenryLi (Talk) 04:32, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

  • Comment The references might be better suited for an article on the festival. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 17:42, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak Delete: I agree with TPH that if this tower is a part of the festival, an article on the festival is more appropriate ... provided it is a proper article with suitable verification and establishment of notability. Given that this article is two years old, it's already had plenty of time to establish that. WP:HEY applies, but I'd need some convincing to change my vote.  RGTraynor  20:16, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. As there are no reliable sources cited, I am persuaded that the article does not comply with the verifiability policy. Stifle (talk) 18:39, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - use the small amount of content here to build a decent article about the festival itself (I'd love to see such a page). HenryLi - the WP:DEL category that this falls into is "fails to meet the relevant notability guideline". Merenta (talk) 19:17, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
