[edit] Otley Museum

Non-notable museum article for a small town, reads like a ad or a brosure, Delete --Jaranda wat's sup 16:18, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

  • I'm not the original author but I think this has merit, so I added (and will continue to add) more relevant content, and cleaned out the POV language. Keep. JDoorjam 17:10, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep or merge with Otley. -- JJay 20:55, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
  • merge into Otley, where it will find a gruff Yorkshire welcome, and a nice cup of tea. MNewnham 21:04, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep as it is. I've put it in 3 categories, and they would not be appropriate if it was merged. Mergists don't seem to place much value on the category system. CalJW 01:38, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep we have plenty other articles about museums that seem to set a precedent Black Country Museum Greenfield Village to name but two. Jcuk 02:32, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
    • That's true, but some element of notability must exist. You are comparing a 26 acre 'living museum' to a room in the town hallMNewnham 18:09, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Merge into Otley. Local interest only, so should be lumped in with the local article. --Calton | Talk 01:49, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. I'm generally sympathetic to the notability of museums, even small or regional ones. -Colin Kimbrell 16:25, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep as above. Evil Eye 17:04, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
