[edit] Falkner Eggington Courts

Delete. It's a university residence of no particular importance. ^{[Check Google hits]} shows 111 hits, with 48 of them being "unique". Prod was removed by article's author with the comment "Reason for deletion didn't make sense to me. You'll see how notable the hall is once the page is finished." ... discospinster _talk 15:09, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete This page is simply a reconstruction of the previously deleted one - see below. A redirect to Loughborough University would be far more appropriate. The precedent is the William Morris AfD; halls at Lufbra aren't notable in the same way as Oxbridge halls.

• Do not delete Searching for "Falk-Egg", as the hall is more commonly known, gives you nearly 5000 hits, on the basis of a google search. 86.143.211.37 16:05, 11 September 2006 (UTC)Louisa
• Do not delete I don't see what the problem is, surely Wikipedia is here with the aim of collecting and showing information. This page has been set up to provide information on the hall, which is so much more than just a collection of buildings. Also I don't see how someone who's never been there can label it as "of no particular importance". —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nick Dastardly (talk • contribs)

Comment. Actually, I just searched "Falk-Egg" on Google, and it gave me 2000 hits (which I suppose is "nearly 5000"), with 160 of them "unique". And no, I have never been to Falk-Egg, but then again I've never been to your flat, but I can still tell you it's of no particular importance. Please see "what Wikipedia is not". ... discospinster _talk 16:30, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - nothing distinguishes this residence from the many other residences at unversities and colleges. No sources cited also. -- Whpq 17:29, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - inevitably, an extremely provincial article. WP:NOT a campus building directory; this residence doesn't have notability in general. Tangentially, I think it would have been good form to omit the trivia section. My Alt Account 17:42, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as non-notable. --Huon 18:47, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete The fourth item at Wikipedia:List of bad article ideas is "Your dormitory (unless it's on the Historic Register)." There is no assertion in the article that this dorm is on the Historic Register or equivalent. No assertion of notability in the article. GRBerry 01:50, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
