Abdali The New Downtown Of Amman, Jordan

This article describes the construction of a residential and commercial centre, phase one of which will be complete in 2010. It may represent self-promotion. It may also contain information that is too speculative for inclusion. Richard Cavell (talk) 07:41, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment. The current article is written like marketing copy, but independent coverage appears to be available. WP:CRYSTAL doesn't seem to be that big a problem. According to the sources I found, construction started in 2007 and the big retailers are signed up. Also 2010 is not that far off. There is also a mention of an award. • Gene93k (talk) 12:50, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

this project is concidered one of the most important projects in the middle east, no to mention jorda. it will include over 10 sky scrapers and it will change the economy of downtown amman, while most sources are promotional which is the case for most realestate development projects. a more neutral tone would definetly be apropriate... but never the less. this project is the biggest project the kingdom of jordan has seen in its history and i believe should be covered.. of course i the most neutral way possible —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.206.144.193 (talk) 19:09, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 *  Week Keep  (see below) The English-language sources all appear to be real estate promotional discussions, but the number of them is enough to suggest that this is a big deal for the Middle East business community. The current article title sounds a bit hype-driven, though, so a move to something more neutral may be in order. Rklear (talk) 23:39, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Week keep per my comments and others above. It will need a NPOV rewrite however. • Gene93k (talk) 23:49, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: there's another similar article with the same issues here. Recommend we list them together. TheFeds 07:56, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I've nominated the second article as well—they should rise or fall together: TheFeds 08:02, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge both with Al Abdali, a pre-existing stub on that district of Amman. The business development project would fit well as a section there. Rklear (talk) 09:08, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Al Abdali article is describing the whole area, whereas the Abdali_(Amman) new downtwon project is being constructed in an area of the whole abdali region. so as not to mislead readers we need to have it as a separate section. after all the project is actually changing the concept of Amman as a city. the 2 articles Abdali_(Amman) and the article we are discussing now should be merged into the Abdali_(Amman) page because its title is more appropriate.Joeyzaza (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 09:04, 12 December 2008 (UTC).

 * Merge- with Al Abdali, providing verifiable sources to establish notability. --Jmundo (talk) 18:24, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
