Boone Mall

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Two of the three sources are news about the mall flooding and don't count per WP:NOTNEWS. That leaves one article which only contains one short paragraph about the mall. I found one halfway decent source saying the mall was renovated, but could not find any other sources. Fails WP:GNG. Me5000 (talk) 01:26, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment: I think that the article should. There are plenty of other mall related pages that are worse than this one. --ACase0000 (talk) 04:20, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - The subject-specific notability guideline applicable here is WP:ORG. Google News finds some sources, but the overwhelming majority is local coverage intended for a local audience (lots in the High Country Press), thus not satisfying WP:AUD. Even coverage about the flooding is all exclusively local . There does appear to be any national level coverage that would separate this mall from all the other malls in the world—see WP:MILL. As for the other mall-related pages that may be worse, I don't find that a very convincing reason to keep this one, as many articles exist on Wikipedia that probably shouldn't—see WP:OTHERSTUFF.

 * Delete - WP:OSE isn't a valid rationale for keeping a bad article. Mz7 and the nom give the best summaries of why this article should be deleted. Nothing in the engines showed anything which would make this mall notable.  Onel 5969  TT me 13:17, 16 September 2015 (UTC)
