Airport Circle (Pennsauken)

Contested prod. This seems like a non-notable traffic circle to me. Yeah, its old, but really, its a traffic circle. Any relevant info can be covered in the route articles ,List of traffic circles in New Jersey, or in the Pennsauken Township, New Jersey article. Admrboltz (talk) 02:08, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete, not notable enough and the image doesn't even look like it is a traffic circle. Sumsum2010 · T · C 04:28, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep: Since it now appears to be the oldest rotary traffic circle in the United States, I suppose that does give it sufficient notability, although the real reason is that new sources have been added to sufficiently demonstrate notability (which is not inherent). Guoguo12  --Talk--  13:55, 31 December 2010 (UTC) Delete:  Of the three online references, one doesn't work and one doesn't really mention the subject. I can't find any sources online beyond the one news source provided. Hence, I don't think the subject has received the "significant coverage" demanded by the general notability guideline.

 * The one that "doesn't work" does work if one simply looks it up (by the title, dateline, and byline supplied in the citation) in the Courier-Post&#39;s archives. Uncle G (talk) 05:04, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmm... you were right, but only the abstract is free. Guoguo12  --Talk--  13:55, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - I think I've found some sources to help, which I'll add shortly. - Theornamentalist (talk) 05:20, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. Sourced claim to be the "first rotary of its kind in the U.S." makes this notable. --Arxiloxos (talk) 06:33, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - This circle has historical value in being the first highway traffic circle in the U.S.  Dough 48  72  16:09, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
