Alpena Mall

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Well, here we go again. Another mall article that, in retrospect, I regret creating. I can't G7 speedy this since other users have edited it, so I have to take it here. There're no online sources to be found for this mall -- even though it truly is the only mall serving northeastern Michigan.

 * Delete Local mall with only 225,000 sq ft of retail area, while a superregional mall has 800,000 and a regional mall has 400,000. Lacks other sources showing it has architectural or historic importance to otherwise demonstrate notability. Fails WP:ORG and clearly fails even the rejected guideline WP:MALL.

 * Comment Actually, I found another source at one point (now no longer available) that said it was even smaller than that! (I go to this mall all the time, I really doubt that it's 225,000 SF.) Ten Pound Hammer  • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 16:13, 24 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. 21 stores? Boy, that's a whopper. Not notable. Realkyhick 17:47, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per lack of coverage through independent sources - Nothing found through google news.   Also, nice of you to leave a AFD notice on your own talk page! Corpx 18:56, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Like, totally delete as a non-notable mall, fershur. TPH: the fact that you warn yourself about AFDs on articles you created makes me giggle. Well done! Tony Fox (arf!) review? 20:25, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
 * What can I say? I did this AfD with Twinkle, which warns the page's creator. Ten Pound Hammer  • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 21:22, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Aha! I haven't used Twinkle for AFDs yet, so hadn't noticed that feature. Tony Fox (arf!) review? 21:50, 24 July 2007 (UTC)


 * delete We should have gotten to this one earlier. many malls are notable, but clearly not this. DGG (talk) 23:58, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Hard to argue with the author/nominator. Say, is that a snowball gathering momentum? Mandsford 00:14, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
