[edit] Lodsworth

Non-notable village, page aparently created to advertise a pub. First edit by author BrownHairedGirl 15:11, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete I added a link to the village council's website and a {{Sussex-geo-stub}} but I don't think that there is enough of note about the place to make it worthy of an article. The pub doesn't appear to be noteworthy either, although I am happy to be corrected on this.  (aeropagitica)  17:18, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep OK, I am open to correction and have changed my opinion as a result of the following comments.  (aeropagitica)  21:07, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep I added a link to a map and another detail. As far as I recall, the precedent is that any real geographic places are kept (from memory, American communities with populations of zero or one have been kept...). Anyway, Lodsworth's got a village hall, a pub and a church! Sliggy 18:04, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Sliggy.Obina 20:01, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as per Sliggy, have seen many articles about less populous villages around Wikipedia. Mallocks 20:07, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Undecided Like aeropagitica, I'm swayed by he discussion, but not entirely towards a "keep". As it stands, it's still functioning primarily as a plug for the pub, and I can't see any way out of that save adding more detail. But this is a more general issue, and I feel I'm too new to Wikipedia to cast a vote on how to handle such a situation, to which I'm sure there are precedents.

• Keep and expand. Real place with real communities of interest. Capitalistroadster 23:07, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep we've far smaller places here. I added another few relevant words to the article. Grutness...wha? 07:25, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
