[edit] Festival Bay Mall

Just a shopping mall, of which there are hundreds in the United States alone. Nothing in the article indicates any importance that this mall exhibits over any other mall. Also, as a mall is a business, this falls under WP:CORP, which it clearly fails. Was prodded, but the tag was removed. Indrian 15:05, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

• Merge or keep. Kappa 16:06, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Large mall, known for its failure to get off the ground in a large tourist area. Kirjtc2 19:13, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete WP:CORP is the relevant standard for malls, as they are in the business of renting space. No evidence or assertion in the article of meeting the standards, no reliable sources used to back up any assertion that might be made. GRBerry 01:17, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Kirjtc2, large malls surely meet WP:CORP last I checked. RFerreira 22:35, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete RFerreira, where do large malls meet any of the following, from WP:CORP:

A company or corporation is notable if it meets any of the following criteria:

1. The company or corporation has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the company itself.
   • This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, television documentaries, and published reports by consumer watchdog organizations except for the following:
     • Media reprints of press releases, other publications where the company or corporation talks about itself, and advertising for the company. ¹
     • Works carrying merely trivial coverage, such as newspaper articles that simply report extended shopping hours or the publications of telephone numbers and addresses in business directories.²
2. The company or corporation is listed on ranking indices of important companies produced by well-known and independent publications.³
3. The company's or corporation's share price is used to calculate stock market indices.⁴ Being used to calculate an index that simply comprises the entire market is excluded.

• Delete as a failure of WP:CORP and lacking in any reliable sources.--Gay Cdn (talk) (email) (Contr.) 00:20, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. --Myles Long 16:45, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. I could have sworn that I'd left more than a single word on that comment. Here's my rationale. Keep per bbx, Kirjtc2, etc. Also, seems to pass WP:CORP. Also, verifiability over notability. Also WP:NOT paper. --Myles Long 17:15, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
