[edit] The Vines Public House, Liverpool

Another pub without any indication of notability. I don't see anything that sets it apart from the many thousands of other pubs in Britain. -R. fiend 19:11, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, a centre of the community, almost 100 years old. Kappa 19:56, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
  • What's your source for the "centre of the community" assertion? Even the article didn't say that. And furthermore 100 years old isn't particularly old for a British pub. -R. fiend 20:01, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
    • Pubs are centres of the community, at least in my experience. Kappa 20:04, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
      • Which would make your observation redundant. Ben-w 21:12, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
        • Well people would nag me about their grandparents if I just said "almost 100 years old". Looks I can't win... Kappa 23:29, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
          • So you basically think every pub in Britain (and perhaps the world) should have an article, then. Is there anything in the world that doesn't deserve an encyclopedia article in your mind? -R. fiend 01:04, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
        • Your community must have an awful lot of centres.... -Splash 01:25, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Article does not establish notability; WP is not a travel guide. Fernando Rizo T/C 22:29, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. It's just an outlet for beer. And crisps. Oh, and peanuts. Which is less than your local newsagents sells and surely they don't get an article? -Splash 01:25, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. It's old enough to be considered historic. Also "Walker was the man who gave us our famous art gallery in 1877. The Vines itself is one of the only pubs in the British Isles that can boast its own art collection" according o the BBC source. That's notable. --Vizcarra 19:14, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep "Grade II: buildings of special interest" as defined by someone else. That they are public does make them different from private houses, anyone can visit. The Vines is II * even more interesting. --Jirate 21:32, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
