[edit] Pennrose Mall
AfDs for this article:
Non-notable shopping mall, fails WP:RS, also has some WP:OR in it. I haven't been to North Carolina, much less this mall, but it sounds like a small dying mall with nothing special about it. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 00:56, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- Comment. Survived a previous AfD with a vote of "no consensus". Most "keep" votes were along the lines of WP:USEFUL and WP:ILIKEIT. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 01:01, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. About the only notable feature is its age. Oli Filth 01:26, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete I don't see anything notable about it. Oysterguitarist 02:00, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Unsourced and not notable. Gorkymalorki 02:41, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete is this serving as the mall's web page, too? Jauerback 03:14, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. No sources are provided, and a currently operating mall in the United States that doesn't have its own web site is likely to be non-notable. --Metropolitan90 06:27, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. I'm going to quote an comment from the previous AfD, while I don't entirely agree with every detail it contains important truths: "All malls should have articles here because they are the local landmarks of our times, often replacing Main Street or town squares. They have as much influence on towns as highways, schools, or stadiums. They are substantial economic enterprises and raise major issues involving land use, taxation, and globalization. Too many people love to talk, read or write about them for us to play silly games and try to exclude them. This may be hard for people to believe, but in the real world, they are far more important than the latest Virtual community, Pokemon card, or webcomic." Mathmo Talk 21:09, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
