[edit] Greece dialing code 26710
Violates WP:NOT#DIR and fails to address notability. ΖαππερΝαππερ BabelAlexandria 04:02, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete WP:NOT says "Wikipedia is not a directory of everything that exists or has existed." --†Sir James Paul† 05:56, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 06:51, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

- Delete, per nom. Wikipedia is not the Greek telephone directory; only the phone numbers of the ancient Greeks are notable enough to include here. - Smerdis of Tlön 13:59, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- Note - if this is deleted then the remainder of the Greek dialing codes need to be nominated for deletion, as well as the entire batch of "Area code XXX" articles to avoid a systemic bias. For what it is worth, I agree that the only dialing codes which warrant articles are the ones that have some kind of "special notability", such as a readily documentable cultural impact. As has been stated above, WP:NOT#DIR applies here. Arkyan • (talk) 15:10, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, per nom. Also, I agree with Arkyan above that we need to go through, find all of these "Area/Dialing code XXX" articles and delete all of them that don't have real notability (which I suspect is not exactly a lot of them). --└ Smith120bh/TALK ┐ 15:50, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- Keep not a directory article. This article talks about the history of the codes, and this is beyond a list or directory does. DGG 21:04, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
