[edit] Vandkulturhuset

Vandkulturhuset (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This article feels like borderline spam to me (and I almost speedied it as such). I don't see anything references to make this known as a notable pool complex. It's hard for me to address verifiability since it's Danish and I definitely don't know much beyond English. I was going to suggest a merge to the conference center, DGI-byen, but I'm beginning to wonder if that's worth keeping too (I'll let others decide whether or not that needs to be AFDed as well).

  • Speedy delete A7 non-notable company/organisation/facility. I don't see any particular kind of assertion of notability.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 18:28, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Also most of the text is unencyclopedic information, going into a level of detail not required or even wanted on Wikipedia. I mean, does the rest of the world care about the exact measurements of one particular swimming pool?--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 18:29, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge/Redirect into DGI-byen. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 18:51, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete extremely spammy in both content and tone. No objection to a merge, but what's currently in the article is either spammy in tone or extremely trivial. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 19:20, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Vandkulturhuset (English translation is "Water culture house") is an important cultural epicenter in Denmark, and also, internationally, it represents an important aspect of Danish culture. Perhaps the article needs some revision, but the article does contain a lot of important facts and details about this cultural centerpiece.Glogger (talk) 01:44, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep For a unique location of architectural significance, it is fair to give dimensions of diving boards and pools, since the diving boards and pools form a key part of the architecture. I would suggest adding more on cultural events at the site, such as Danish banquets and concerts, and how the architecture uniquely complements those events - ie. specific examples.Rianoj (talk) 05:54, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
