Columbia Mall (Missouri)
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log )

Previous debate closed as no consensus. Sources are either trivial, passing mentions or not about the mall and are not enough to meet WP:GNG.


 * Source 1 is a primary source
 * Source 2 contains one half of a sentence about the mall
 * Source 3 and 4 are just directory listings
 * Source 5 only contains one sentence about the mall
 * Source 6 and 7 are about a single store opening at the mall nothing about the mall itself
 * Source 8 and 9 talk about traffic around the mall and other places nothing actually about the mall itself
 * Source 10 probably the best source, but still doesn't say much about the mall itself
 * Source 11 about traffic around the mall area and other areas, nothing about the mall itself

I've searched using google for other sources and nothing else comes up except directory listings. Fails WP:GNG. Me5000 (talk) 14:39, 7 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Speedy Close - The nom's previous AfD, Articles for deletion/Columbia Mall (Missouri) (2nd nomination) just ended on June 17 with absolutely no different argument offered for deletion with this one except for a couple of comments on additional sources about this topic. AfD is not a mechanism to be abused over sour grapes due to a previous recent outcome. I also see the nom created the first AfD which only ended in March.  Instead of spending so much energy and editors' time to your deletion desire of this article, I'd advise using your time contributing content to articles and improving them. --Oakshade (talk) 20:04, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Speedy close This was created two hours and ten minutes after the close of Deletion review/Log/2014 July 29, which was also begun by the same editor.  Nom conveniently ignores the search suggestions provided in the first AfD in claiming he can't find any sources.  Nom was briefly blocked recently for edit warring to get this topic redirected to Columbia, MO.  Nom was asked at the DRV to explain the pattern of creating mall stubs, mall AfDs, mall DRVs, participation in mall AfDs, and attempts to redirect mall articles; at the most recent DRV, but didn't answer.

 * Speedy close, for all the reasons stated above. I would close this myself, but was involved in the original AfD, thus feel a certain conflict of interest.  -- RoySmith (talk) 01:00, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
