  • Userfy and Delete Doesn't belong in mainspace, but give the author a copy. Shimeru 09:21, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, userfy on request per above. MER-C 12:21, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Userfy per above. Userfied articles are usually supposed to be moved to preserve attribution history, rather than copied over and deleted.--Kchase T 23:00, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
    • The redirect should be deleted, though. That's what I was referring to. Shimeru 23:08, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
      • Ah, my misinterpretation then.--Kchase T 23:10, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Question. if this theatre has truly been added to the national register for historic places, how can it be considered non-notable? Theatre history is important. I'm leaning towards retaining... Shawn in Montreal 01:16, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Move to Strand Theatre, Lakewood. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 07:40, 30 December 2006 (UTC). I have moved it. While it did contain a lot of the same information from the official website, you have to remember that you can't copyright facts. The only phrase that bothered me was "playground for the rich" which I removed. I am glad the creator made a safety copy, or this would have been gone for a long time down the memory hole of deleted articles. The original article should have been edited, not deleted. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 08:16, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Good work. Definitely a Keep, in my view. Notable. Its placement on the national register of historic places is the clincher, for meShawn in Montreal 18:05, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
