[edit] Images of Croydon

Images of Croydon (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Belongs on the Commons not here. (Too bad for those images which have been uploaded here! All mine are on the Commons - smug grin.) I have done a crude copy&paste of the article to here on the Commons to show that the majority of images are already there. -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 19:46, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete. Either building discussion would go in Architecture of Croydon, or the images go to Commons. This is not what one expects of an article here. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 19:31, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - per nom and above. Copy the images over if possible. Think outside the box 20:46, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - its more than just photos, its writing too. More than can go on Commons. Pafcool2 (talk) 15:22, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete as an image gallery. Any text that is of value really belongs on the Croydon page. -- Whpq (talk) 16:33, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge - it looks like a lot of this information and some of the images could be inserted into both the London borough and suburb\town articles. Simply south (talk) 21:47, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - Like Pafcool2 said it has more than just images on the page. And to what Simply south said, all of these images would'nt be able to fit on the london borough/town page. Siemens2 (talk) 17:05, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
    I note that this user is either Pafcool2 or someone closely related to him. Each userpage links back to the other one. As per Wikipedia:Sock puppetry, "Closely connected users may be considered a single user for Wikipedia's purposes if they edit towards the same objectives." I think this is clearly the case here so this is effectively a duplicate vote and can probably be disregarded. Adambro (talk) 19:22, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - images should be in commons and the text should be in the relevant articles. MilborneOne (talk) 22:56, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per MilborneOne. Adambro (talk) 19:23, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
