Deer Trace Shopping Center

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This is a generic power center that is a subregional shopping destination with the usual Target/Home Depot/local department store anchors and other smaller shops among it; there are much larger shopping destinations nearby (Grafton's development, for instance) that do not have articles here. PROD was removed under claim of Kohler Company ownership, but the village of Kohler has the land as part of the village and provides police protection and provides the usual advice about clientèle so a payday loan store or other fad shop that clears out after a few weeks isn't part of this shopping center; it is under other ownership. Most sources found are mostly barely-veiled PR about businesses in the shopping center (i.e. ribbon cuttings for the CoC) or the usual 'check out our store here' mentions, or esoteric leasing information.

 * Upon deletion of the article, the shopping center will need to find it's way on the Kohler Company has I have confirmed with the Village Clerk's Office that Deer Trace is owned by the Kohler Company. Asher Heimermann (talk) 22:06, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Not that it matters regarding deletion, but Land / GIS data from http://www.co.sheboygan.wi.us indicates that Kohler, 444 Highland Dr owns land adjacent to the shopping center, but individual tracts are owned by other companies in other states, Target, etc, not Kohler. They probably owned the land before, but apparently don't now, according to public land records. Certainly not worth mentioning prior ownership or ownership of adjacent land in an article about Kohler Company. --Dual Freq (talk) 23:22, 29 October 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete as I'm not seeing any obvious signs of better improvement. SwisterTwister   talk  04:32, 30 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. Ordinary shopping centre, with no evidence of notability. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 21:29, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
