[edit] Galatasaray Island
- Delete. This page describes a non-notable "island" in Turkey that is wholly owned and operated as a private club, which is also non-notable. Cruft taking up space. Proxy User (talk) 19:55, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- Keep Galatasaray is an island, albeit artificial. Furthermore it is a notable landmark of Istanbul, smack in the middle of the Bosporus as it is. ¨¨ victor falk 22:15, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- Keep While the article is badly in need of improvement, it is a real geographical location and thus notable. Edward321 (talk) 01:35, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
- Keep: cleanup done. Notable enough for its own article. Alexius08 is welcome to talk about his contributions. 04:36, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
- Keep, although the article must be improved to say exaclty why the club bought it. It is notable for this reason, and categorically not because of the nonsense idea that all places are notable by default. MickMacNee (talk) 17:00, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
