Ashley House
Who wants to know about an obscure house in Bermuda? Delete. TAS 17:18, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I don't see any reason why not to include the bramuda house as long as the content is accurate. It seems to be a valid referance to a historic building in the "New World" where you may notice we have a shortage of realy old buildings. Honestly i think that there is no reason to delete the page unless it can be proven inacurate.

 * One reason is that Wikipedia is not a general knowledge base. Dpbsmith (talk) 01:30, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep and Cleanup. I agree that this should be placed somewhere on the Bermuda pages, but I am thinking it could be cleaned up a bit so it does not sound like an ad. Zscout370 17:33, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. It's one of 60 historical properties on the island. What's so special about this one? Gamaliel 20:20, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: That just gave me an idea, why not create a page of Historical Places in Bermuda. Zscout370 21:08, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep There are many such articles in Wikipedia, and we shouldn't sneer at small countries. Wincoote 01:22, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment I would be much, much, much happier seeing this as a section in an article on Historical Places in Bermuda than as a separate article in itself. Dpbsmith (talk) 01:30, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Agree with Dpbsmith. Move to Historical Places in Bermuda, then tag for expansion. Meelar (talk) 01:57, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, nothing really outstanding or notable about this structure. Megan1967 03:02, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep historical properties. If it's moved I'd prefer Historical places in Bermuda or Historical buildings in Bermuda. You know, capitalization and all that ;) Mgm|(talk) 08:17, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as nn. Radiant_* 10:50, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep historic places. Kappa 11:41, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Other historic houses should all be kept, why shouldn't this one?  P Ingerson
 * Oh no! Ashley-cruft strikes again! keep Grue 14:53, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Per Gamaliel's comment -- answer: It's important enough. The non-notable argument is the most misused one out there. This is for architectural record and probably useful for a number of people. Sniffandgrowl 01:06, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * User was created today; he has only two edits not to vfds, one of them to his user page. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 02:26, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep all important historic buildings.--Centauri 02:24, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, sure, but is this an important building? That's the whole question, isn't it? Dpbsmith (talk) 02:35, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * It says "A Grade One listing is applied to properties that are of significant historic and/or architectural importance to the country" Kappa
 * As I undersatand it, a "Grade One listed" building is by definition a significant structure. Keep Dsmdgold 22:52, Apr 2, 2005 (UTC)
