[edit] Greene Building, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

Greene Building, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Contested speedy. Non notable building and course description that belongs in a student guide. Little, if anything, worth merging to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute article.

Also including Pittsburgh Building

• Delete per nom unless a more objective version (without the cutesy quotations from students in the former case) can be written in order to demonstrate notability. Looking at the articles currently, I don't believe that will be the case, but I'm happy to be proven wrong. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 07:42, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as individual campus buildings are not usually notable. These aren't even on the National Register of Historic Places. --Dhartung | Talk 17:16, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete individual buildings tend not to be notable, especially without placement on the National Register of Historic Places.-- danntm ^T _C 18:19, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Comment - this is one of a series of articles mixing archtectural details and faculty minutiae. I suggest they be merged into one for the buildings with the faculty stuff stipped away. -- Beardo 00:00, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Comment as far as I can see from the articles, the buildings are no more notable than the course details. Nuttah68 09:47, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Comment While it's a cool building, I agree it's not particularly notable beyond RPI. I was surprised to see even a page on it. I made some corrections earlier and cleaned it up a little, but I'm still not sure it's WP material. Same with the other campus buildings listed Alec 20:53, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Comment These buildings, both today and in the past, are host to symposiums and other academic meetings which are attended by people from around the world. I would agree that an entry on a dormitory is worthless in the context of WP, but these buildings are of interest to those outside the school's community.
