[edit] Wynn Las Vegas

A casino that's under construction. Delete because: advertising, Wikipedia is not a travel guide, Wikipedia is not a directory, and Wikipedia is not a crystal ball Dpbsmith (talk) 15:42, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. According to the informative, NPOV article: 1) it looks like construction is pretty much done on the main building and it's going to open soon, so there really isn't a lot left to speculation at this point; and 2) however new it is, as a major casino, one of the largest buildings in Vegas, and the coming venue for a notable Broadway show, it's a notable landmark.

• Keep, those seem like some trumped-up charges. Even (especially) if the casino never opens, it deserves an article. Rhobite 16:12, Mar 17, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep major construction projects and local landmarks. Kappa 16:18, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Notable project underway. This crystal ball policy needs to be applied with discretion - I also note that it states that projects where work has definitely started are acceptable providing they meet other criteria. Capitalistroadster 17:02, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. We have articles on many of the major casino/hotels (see Category:Hotels of Las Vegas and Category:Casinos in Nevada). Such an article isn't advertising unless it consists solely of puffery. Although this facility won't open until next month, it's a major current construction project, it's been the subject of considerable media attention, and the hiring for it has already affected some of the other Strip casinos.

• Keep and allow for organic growth. Agree with Postdlf and JamesMLane. --GRider\^talk 17:19, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Comment Seems like I probably shouldn't have nominated this. Apologies. Dpbsmith (talk) 18:18, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. This will be the most talked about casino/hotel in Las Vegas when it opens; in fact, it already is the most talked about casino/hotel in Las Vegas. Steve Wynn hasn't failed at anything in Vegas yet, and he isn't about to this time. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 19:37, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep (or merge with Marill; that article's looking rather shabby). --SPUI (talk) 11:54, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• keep Clearly notable. All the so-called reasons for deletion are misrepresented by the nominator. Wincoote 13:34, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
