[edit] Technology Park, Adelaide

Technology Park, Adelaide (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) - (View log)

I just don't see anything notable about this place. I could write a dozen articles on business parks in Milwaukee (where I live), but none of them would be notable either. Please correct me if I'm wrong. --Fang Aili talk 23:57, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete if the Adelaide article is getting too long there might be merit to some sort of "business of adelaide" or "economy of adelaide" article (as was done with transport in Adelaide) that would include everything this article includes. Plymouths 00:06, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment - This area is a part of Mawson Lakes, South Australia. We can merge there if people want. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 00:30, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. This is not simply a business park, this was a government financed iniative as part of a wider development... the University of South Australia campus, the failed 'multi function polis', and the eventual Mawson Lakes project. There are verifiable sources in numerous books on this part of South Australian history. To dismiss this place as simply a business park is folly. michael talk 00:52, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - This article provides no verifiable sources to establish notability. Whether it's a business park, a three-ring circus or an orbiting space station is irrelevant. Shaundakulbara 04:32, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Have to agree with Michael that it's important and notable. 1st technology park in Australia, home to many important companies....unfortunately that's basically the substance of the subject apart from some bits about the foundation of the park. Definately Merge to Mawson Lakes... I've moved the text and I'd suggest (given it's a possible search term) just changing to a redirect - Peripitus (Talk) 12:52, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep or merge to Mawson Lakes and redirect. Michael is correct that there is more to this subject to meets the eye – the area is the watered down product of a historically important proposal to redevelop northern Adelaide. It is also a significant example of government sponsored economic hubs in Australia.--cj | talk 15:37, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge / Redirect to Mawson Lakes per above. --Arnzy (talk • contribs) 15:40, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment - I wouldn't mind a merge/redirect to somewhere appropriate. --Fang Aili talk 16:03, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
