Boulevard Mall

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable mall in New York, fails WP:RS. A search for reliable sources online found nothing of note, just another ordinary shopping mall (except for a somewhat bizarre layout). Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 04:01, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep reliable sources are provided to demonstrate that this is a notable super-regional mall, satisfying the Notability standard. Alansohn 04:45, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Alansohn. Tim Q. Wells 04:46, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Weak keep referenced. Just barely notable enough to be kept. The   Wikipedist  04:48, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. If kept, rename to Boulevard Mall (Amherst, New York) since there are other malls with this name, at least one of which is probably notable. Vegaswikian 08:44, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
 * That other mall is the largest mall in Nevada so I agree with the name change and turning Boulevard Mall into a disambiguation page. Tim Q. Wells 15:15, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

 * KEEP I started this article to complete a set of the other malls in the Buffalo, NY area. I can see by the editing that others have considered it important enough to work on.  It is historically one of the first malls in the area, but it has lost some status due to newer, larger malls.  It has undergone renovation and enlargement several times to remain competitive.  It is also a favorite for Canadian shoppers because it is relatively close to the border.  My feeling about deletions is that Wikipedia seems to have articles on many trivial topics, such as every damned single ever cut, so I think that an article about a mall that services an international clientele, deserves a little space. Otherwise, I have no further interest except in keeping Wikipedia informative on every topic possible. Thanks, Stepp-Wulf 02:07, 8 October 2007 (UTC).
 * Keep As a super-regional mall with a gross leasable area of 904,000 square feet. 'Nuff said. Edison 02:45, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol_keep_vote.svg|15px]] Keep and Rename per AlanSohn and Vegaswikian, respectively. GlassCobra (Review) 02:54, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Conditional weak keep Combination of size, age and cross-border location seem to confer a semblance of notability. However, no verifiable and reliable sources, neither in the article nor here corroborate this:
 * 1) (in the article) Article subject's homepage
 * 2) (by Tim Q. Wells above) Amersht Record article about restaurants in mall, not mall.
 * 3) (ibid) 10best (a travelguide) gives adress of and shops in BM.
 * 4) (ibid) Buffalo Business First article about valet parking (at BM)
 * 5) (ibid) Coffee Beanery's homepage (establishment at BM, does not mention BM other than being its location)--Victor falk 03:50, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Seems to be a significant regional mall that is important to its community and therefore an encyclopedic part of covering that community.  Wikidemo 12:48, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep - these articles are important, and notability is inherent. Agree with other Keep comments here.139.48.81.98 15:11, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
