Atlantic Terminal Mall
I nominated this article for deletion because other than one single third-party source, it doesn't seem notable and if other similar mall articles have been deleted in the past, why should this one stay? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~NeonFire372~ (talk • contribs) Edit: Can you withdraw a AfD?

 * strong keep - this area of Brooklyn is undergoing rapid and contentious change/urban redevelopment, this urban "mall" is part of that process. CyntWorkStuff (talk) 03:21, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment This nom was improperly formatted and unfinished (no header, no sig, wasn't listed in the log). I fixed all that. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 06:43, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak delete, nominator's reasons aren't terribly convincing, but the lack of sources has me believing that this is indeed a non-notable mall. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 06:46, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Okay, who added references to the article when I wasn't looking?... Seriously though, it does seem to meet WP:RS and WP:V now, and as proven by other users below, more sources do exist. Possible snowball keep? Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 18:10, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - Is the nominator using a WP:OTHERSTUFFDOESNOTEXIST argument ? That is the flip side of WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS and is not a good basis to argue for deletion. I see 2 NYTimes and 1 brooklynpapers.com, that gets it past WP:RS and WP:V in my mind. Being a keystone in ATURA gives it Notability. Exit2DOS2000   •T•C•  06:47, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Sourced, pictured, topic at least as good as some of are other mall articles. Mbisanz (talk) 08:23, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep while the article could certainly be further developed, what is here is well referenced and meets WP:N / WP:RS.Garrie 11:33, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 *  Definite Keep – Has several articles in the New York Times alone with one shown here .  Additional sources from reliable and verifiable sources as shown here   Shoessss |  Chat  14:02, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, could I reccomend that before people nominate soemthing for AfD they search the Google News archive for the topic under different spellings and so on? Lobojo (talk) 16:36, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - it's a busy place, I go there all the time. -- Dougie WII (talk) 16:53, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per the New York Times coverage and other references. Coccyx Bloccyx (talk) 21:21, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
