Talk:Gaebler Children's Center

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] From VfD

  • Gaebler Children is probably too obscure. --Jiang
    • No vote. There is a fairly famous (at least in mental-health circles) hospital called Gaebler Children's Center. If the article had that title and some substance to it, I would vote to keep. But it's border-line. Anjouli 05:27, 24 Jan 2004 (UTC) ⊙
    • Keep. Optim 05:48, 24 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • Uncertain. A minimal but adequate stub. But is it really a valid topic, or is it an obscure institution that is part of the alleged Santa spam? Andrewa 15:25, 24 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • If it is about Santa, I suppose it's not famous. Just checked better on google and seems that it was closed in 1992. I didn't find much info. probably it will never grown in a full article so I vote to delete the article or make it a redirect and include the info in another article. do we have a list of psychiatric institutions or something similar?

      • Have you confirmed the information? If so, I think we should keep it (at least as a redirect to wherever the information might be moved to). There is still no agreement that obscurity is a reason for deletion. -- Oliver P. 02:18, 26 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • Keep. This has absolutely no place on vfd. Anthony DiPierro 14:28, 26 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • Keep. If WP wants to be the most comprehensive encyclopedia, it need things like this. An encyclopedia of mental hostpitals would include this entry. Davodd 09:56, Jan 27, 2004 (UTC)
    • Rename entry to Gaebler Children's Center. This is more subject specific & discriptive of its content. If the hospital has a famous reputation in mental health circles, it warrants mention here. -- Marcus F 28 Jan 04

[edit] Recent additions

I've added a bunch of new info that shows some historical and current significance; primarily reflecting the development of psychiatric treatment in Massachusetts and the redevelopment of abandoned state land. I'd like to remove the importance tag. Comments? Friejose 16:44, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
