Talk:North Fork of Roanoke AVA

Inappropriate material
While I'm sure we all appreciate Sebastian's good faith efforts to seek compromise in the Valhalla AfD, it has been noted that his transfer of material from that deleted article to this article constituted a GFDL violation. But in the larger picture, this material is inappropriate for wine region article anyways for numerous reasons. It is a gross WP:UNDUE violation to have an article on an entire region focus particular on a winery. Take a look at the hundreds of wine region articles in, , , , etc. It is like dedicating an entire section of the Chicago article to content about the restaurant chain Uno Chicago Grill or a section on the Incandescent light bulb article to notes about the light bulb manufacturer General Electric-wholly inappropriate. Furthermore, the material itself is non-notable, essentially WP:TRIVIA at the very best, of very questionable encyclopedic worth. All these taken with the GFDL violation leaves absolutely no reason to include this material in this article and it would be very WP:POINTy to insist on its re-insertion.

The material in question was placed here by an admin as the result of an AFD and so removal of this material unilaterally is disruptive. Further action is still under discussion at Deletion review/Log/2010 January 6 and removal of the material prior to the conclusion of that discussion is likewise disruptive.

 * There's no mention of copying the content in the closing statement of WP:Articles for deletion/Valhalla Vineyards, so I interpret the addition to be an editorial action independent of the AfD's close. In any case, no admin has restored Valhalla Vineyards (log), and the disputed text is a violation of Wikipedia's licensing. Flatscan (talk) 05:04, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
