[edit] Westfield Tea Tree Plaza

Does not attempt to assert any form of notability. At best it could be merged into the city article, but the {{local}} existed for all of 22 minutes. Vegaswikian 19:19, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Merge/Delete and Discipline Tuddy - The article is NN per here as mentioned. At best it can be merged. I propose the ban based on the user's childish edits (scroll down a bit/NSFW) and refusal to learn Wikipedia's policies. Please note by the user's contribs that they have a thing for articles about shopping centers/retail stores and that these articles are usually merged or deleted. Numerous attempts have been made to alert the user to their disruptiveness, but so far nothing has changed. -bobby 19:46, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment The link to the Adelaide CBD by the very unique O-Bahn sets this shopping centre apart from others. Raffles mk 23:14, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete I got shot down once when I said that google hits for local news coverage sufficed for local notability. No google news hits here.Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 23:39, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Yet another of the multiple non-notable articles created by Tuddy (talk ยท contribs). Unless verifiable references can be provided which confirm notability per WP:CORP, get rid of it. --Elonka 23:42, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Now that the article has been expanded, I agree it's worth keeping. I would also point out that this same effect could have been obtained by just expanding it after the {{local}} tag was added to it, rather than going into a revert war and eventual AfD. I recommend that in the future, when articles are flagged with the "local" tag, that it be treated as a normal expansion request, rather than as some kind of censure. Then if the article is not or cannot be expanded within a reasonable amount of time, its information can be merged into a more appropriate location, such as the chain's article, and/or the article about the local community where the establishment is located. --Elonka 18:40, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Has 84 newspaper edits on Factiva. Second-largest shopping centre in South Australia. Specifically linked to the CBD by the O-Bahn. Of interest to people, like myself, who have never been remotely near there. This militant deletionism of perfectly notable and interesting articles is getting really tiresome.

  • Keep as per Rebecca. The O-Bahn link is of significance. Capitalistroadster 04:09, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Australia-related deletions. -- Capitalistroadster 04:09, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per Rebecca. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 06:10, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep as a major South Australian shopping centre and transport hub. I've expanded the article and referenced with some notable facts: for example, the centre was the location of a jewel heist last year. --Canley 08:15, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep as per Capitalistroadster and Rebecca. The O-Bahn link gives it notability. Someone should put some info in about the transport interchange if there isn't something else already. JROBBO 12:51, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Withdawn. The article has been completly rewritten since the nomination. So the early votes do not apply to what is there today. Vegaswikian 18:10, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
