Wikipedia is not a directory. Harland1 (t/c) 15:11, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, at least for the time being (until it has been wikified): The article does not seem to be part of a "directory" at all. The title should be changed to Common weeds of Queensland though. &lt;K  F&gt;  15:16, 29 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep - work to be done but seems reasonably encyclopedic to me, not inappropriate for WP. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 15:21, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Ian Rose. Jonathan (talk • contribs • complain?) 15:53, 29 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep - it needs to be wikified, but I don't see the "directory" at all. Macy's123 review me 15:59, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep but rename to something about the invasive plant species of the region as classified in the article, using classes that are defined by the govt. JJL (talk) 19:10, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep This isn't a "directory", it's a perfectly reasonable topic which just needs some tidying up. Invasive weeds are a big issue in Australia generally. Nick mallory (talk) 20:45, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. I agree that Wikipedia is not a directory, but fail to see what that has to do with this article.  (jarbarf) (talk) 21:40, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep This doesn't look like a directory entry at all. It's a referenced description of the classification system, and a (currently) small list of entries. It's a bit obscure and needs some wikifying but seems perfectly suitable for an article. --Canley (talk) 23:10, 29 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep It's not a directory, it's a list. It does what Wikipedia lists do: Identifies a set of things by significant criteria that readers are likely to want (class of things: weeds; geographic loction: Queensland), it addresses a useful topic for people looking up information (usefulness is a good justification for a Wikipedia list, as opposed to an article), it is an encyclopedic topic, and it helps readers navigate through Wikipedia. Even if we address a topic like this with an article, we'd want a list in that article. We should have more lists like this -- types of fauna or flora by geographic location.

 * Keep, it's a useful list. Could probably be renamed from the slightly awkward title though.  Lankiveil (talk) 02:25, 30 December 2007 (UTC).
 * Keep Acceptable article. Masterpiece2000 (talk) 10:54, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
