[edit] The Half Moon

Seems to have been created to increase the wiki presence of the village of Grendon. The entry starts off like a dicdef ("Half Moon - noun"). It then says that pubs called the Half Moon often have signs with a half moon on - not very informative. It proceeds to name check Grendon, then gives details of local folklore which is already included in the Grendon article. In summary, I'm not convinced that any of this is encyclopedic. Nor am I convinced that the article could be re-written to be made encyclopedic. CLW 13:26, 19 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. The article as it stands refers to the name of one pub in one village. There are many so-called pubs in the UK at least (169 per beerintheevening.com, and that's just registered pubs), then the term "Half Moon" isn't restricted to the name of a pub.
