[edit] Warner Road, Arizona

Warner Road, Arizona (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This is a standard suburban roadway, of which there are millions. The only "notable" fact, which I removed because it was a copyright violation from [1], is that it was built to connect two schools; this also describes at least thousands of roads; most major suburban roads started out as rural roads. A map of the road (Google Maps) can be seen here. NE2 20:42, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment It does appear to be a major arterial road (6 lanes), not sure how major a road needs to be in order to be notable. The section you removed should of been reworded rather than removed all together. --Holderca1 21:09, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
    • If you think the removed copyvio should be reworded, feel free to do so. --NE2 22:53, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
      • I am just saying that by removing the article's claim of notability and then nominating it for deletion as non-notable doesn't seem like the right way of doing things. --Holderca1 19:35, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, no apparent roadway to notability. Article seems to exist for WP:COATRACK-y traffic jam bitching. --Dhartung | Talk 23:13, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete non-notable road. Jakew 23:46, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:COATRACK. Bigdaddy1981 05:03, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment That isn't a valid reason for delete, it's an essay, not policy. --Holderca1 15:34, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
Its non-notable, also. And that's a good enough reason for me The only content that I can see is whining about construction. And what's up with the random picture of the chap (I assume) its named after - nothing about him in there either. Bigdaddy1981 16:55, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment This is not bitching. The road is notable due to it's history and importance to the traffic system of Phoenix suburbs. The amount of traffic and construction is substantial and the state of the art/experimental camera systems are seen in only a handful of states; which makes the article quite notable.

  • Keep. To me, this road has enough notability to have an article for it. It should be moved to Warner Road (Phoenix, Arizona) however. I think there is much more information that should be put in the article relating to the experiments being done with the road. I don't see how it's COATRACK-y. --Son 11:20, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom and WP:N master sonT - C 15:21, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. No way is this article COATRACK-y. It's just how this road is and will be for a long time. I don't see why it couldn't exist as a stub. I hope the "deletionmongers" can at least agree with that. RyanW124 03:20, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete This, to me, looks like your average round and I do not think WP is a directory of roads Corpx 03:45, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per the nomination, this is not a notable road. Burntsauce 17:47, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, there are thousands of urban arterials out there, and many of them have had inconvenient construction at one point or another. —Scott5114↗ 17:55, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
