Status and Advice
As reviewing administrator, I changed it to Prod to give it a chance. (You were wrong to remove the speedy tag yourself--it does not effectually remove the article from the list of those being considered for speedy deletion, but it causes confusion & is not permitted.)

You need to be aware that we have never or almost never considered malls of this size notable; to give it a chance at all be sure to add some references providing substantial coverage from 3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online, but not blogs or press releases, or material derived from press releases. I advise you to fix the problem, and do this very quickly, before the article gets  deleted. If you think you have fixed it with suitable references, you can remove the Prod tag, but the article will be checked, and, if thought appropriate, listed for a regular deletion discussion at WP:AFD.  DGG ( talk ) 16:45, 8 August 2011 (UTC) However, I do not want to discourage you, but to urge you to write a proper article if it is possible; if it is not yet possible, please help us by improving our other articles on related topics.
