[edit] Vinopolis
The article appears to have been created to promote the company, as evidenced by the creator's internal and external linkspamming at wine-related articles and elsewhere (Kingdom85 (talk · contribs)). More importantly, the article fails to assert notability of any kind, thus failing Wikipedia:Notability. It further fails the more specific Wikipedia:Notability (companies and corporations) by easily not qualifying for criteria (2) or (3), and having no independent coverage (Google News gives three press releases and two trivial mentions). Note that regular Google results seem to be heavily influenced by cross-linking and other advertising strategies that fit the pattern of promotion that has been observed here at Wikipedia.

- Keep - it's probably spam as it stands and a fair few of the links need to come off the other articles, but it is a notable tourist attraction in London. Yomanganitalk 15:40, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. It needs to be rewritten and expanded, but technorati returns 484 blog posts that mention it, so it's probably safe to say that it's a notable tourist attraction. The alexa ranking is 305,699, which is mediocre. If it lives and you want me to lend a hand, just leave a message on my talk page. Ultra-Loser Talk | BT sites 02:12, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
