• Delete Definitely biased advertising, One of many merciless attacks of the IP. Croat Canuck 04:45, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, advertising. I wonder if they're related to Shane McKeever who did some line dancing on Steps to the Stars in the UK a few years back. -- Mgm|^(talk) 10:48, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Article does not indicate any claim to notability. --Metropolitan90 18:00, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as above.  RasputinAXP  _{talk contribs} 21:45, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete spam. Note: I have not checked to see if this is a genuinely notable place, no such claim is made and as far as I can see the article as written is an advert, and if anyone cares they will come along and create a proper article, in which case we can judge that on its merits. - Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] (W) AfD? 11:49, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete I agree, untill there is more notable information about the place it should be removed. Perhaps some historical significance and a well thought out entry would be fit to stay.--Ognit Ice 04:51, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Please calm down. The restaurant exists and is verifiable. Last time I checked, there are no "restaurant inclusion guidelines" in Wikipedia. The text needs POV-cleanup, stubbing and categorising. If you don't want to do it, then just put {{advertisement}}{{importance}} tags and move on. -- Perfecto 01:06, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete advertising. Yes, Perfecto, there are no "restaurant inclusion guidelines", but Wikipedia is not the Yellow Pages, and while notability is not a criterion for inclusion, there is nonetheless a consensus of sorts that institutions of extremely local interest, such as single restaurants serving only a tiny district, are not actually encyclopedic. There are also no "limb inclusion guidelines", but that doesn't mean that I could write an article on my left elbow (it's verifiable, and it has appeared on television and in newspapers on numerous occasions!) — Haeleth Talk 13:25, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Why can't you, if it's verifiable and received mention in reliable sources? Haeleth, a "consensus of sorts" is not a guideline or policy. The above shows that none of you are familiar with the topic to say the restaurant is unimportant — that's what the {{importance}} tag asks for. I've put the tags in. I hope someone with more sense can expand the topic before the AfD deadline. -- Perfecto 14:59, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
    • How many verifiable restaurants do you propose that Wikipedia includes, Perfecto? --Nlu 18:27, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
    • I don't feel that Wikipedia needs to put every single verifiable restaurant in the world in, but I guess thats not up to me.Ognit Ice 18:48, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
  • All of them, until a WikiProject Restaurant comes together to put a "restaurant inclusion guidelines" in place. The only established limit I see today is "Wikipedia is not a travel guide". -- Perfecto 18:54, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
