[edit] Skip's Hamburgers

Seems to serve no encyclopedic purpose. Article promotes its subject without assertion of notability. - Richardcavell 03:19, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Does not meet requirements of WP:CORP, and claims asserted as facts are unverifiable. Agent 86 03:48, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as non-notable local restaurant. Not in Michelin Guide. Ted^Talk/_{Contributions} 03:54, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy delete despite throwaway line about fame, no real assertion of notability; puffery should not be taken as an assertion of notability. SM247 04:23, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
• Strong delete, fails WP:CORP as non-notable local restaurant. --Coredesat talk 04:44, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. It doesn't have to be in the Michelin Guide, but it has to have SOME sign of notability, otherwise Wikipedia becomes indistinguishable from the Yellow Pages. This particular place doesn't even show up on Roadfood.com [1], though some other places in Essex County do (Agawam Diner, Clam Box, Boulevard Ocean View, Caffe Sicilia, Essex Seafood, Flav's Red Skiff, J.T. Farnham's, Jim's Bagel & Bake Shop, Marty's Donut Land, Nick's Famous Roast Beef, Salem Diner, The Dory, The Village Restaurant, Turtle Alley, Virgilio's Bakery & Deli, Wenham Tea House, White Farms Ice Cream, and Woodman's of Essex). This one, as the British like to say, not a sausage. If they can't clear even that relatively low bar, out it goes. --Calton | Talk 05:33, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete foodcruft. Danny Lilithborne 06:38, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:CORP. If it had made the list of 20 hamburgers you must eat before you die, this would be a diferent situation... but there is no evidence Skip's is "world famous".--Isotope23 13:01, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete although some trace of this article could be kept for the sake of good examples of perfect candidates for deletion. I just love the "world famous" and "tourist attraction" quotes. Pascal.Tesson 02:43, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete fails Wikipedia:Notability (companies and corporations) --Starionwolf 03:47, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Delete Oh boy, just what we need! Another so-called world-famous place! If it's so world-famous, how come I haven't heard of it, buddy? These kinds of articles that are SO SPECIFIC don't usually do well because they're of such useless information! OTAKU 21:52, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
