Bupa Cromwell Hospital

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This is a private hospital, one of a number owned by the company BUPA. All the given reference does is say "It exists, it is owned by BUPA". It does not establish notability. Given that Wikipedia is not a directory - that is not meant to list every single public or private hospital in the UK - then this should be deleted. Biker Biker (talk) 17:56, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. I'd be happy to retain an article on a hopsital - public or private - regardless of ownership, if the hospital passed the GNG. This one doesn't. bobrayner (talk) 15:35, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is a famous hospital usually known simply as "Cromwell Hospital", without the BUPA branding. Loads of reliable sources can be found by searching accordingly: . Phil Bridger (talk) 08:03, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep and rename to Cromwell Hospital. This hospital is one of London's major private hospitals -- possibly the biggest -- and frequently mentioned in news stories. I've fleshed the article out a bit to reflect this. -- The Anome (talk) 16:55, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment. I would suggest that this article should revert to its original title of Cromwell Hospital, as that is the name by which it it is generally known, and by which it was officially known for most of its existence. To have the title include the current, possibly ephemeral, branding smacks of recentism. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:33, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - Per reliable sources in the article that establish notability of the topic. Also, the current name of the hospital is "Bupa Cromwell Hospital"— therefore the article's title is appropriate. Northamerica1000 (talk) 01:49, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
 * According to WP:COMMONNAME we should use the name by which independent reliable sources refer to the subject, not what has been decided by a corporate branding exercise. Phil Bridger (talk) 17:27, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
