 * Delete. While there is an article in the German Wikipedia, it doesn't have any references either. Bluefist talk 02:56, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep The German article has lots of info that could be added but also lists two books as sources, one of which I added to teh article as a source; I can only see it in snippet view on GoogleBooks but it refers to at least 4 specific buildings on the street as architecturally significant. I added references from several guidebooks, including 2 saying the "Great Fire" of Hamburg broke out at a specific house number on the street. The street has its own subpage on the official Hamburg website, which I also added as a reference. I think that's enough to establish architectural and historical notability and I'm sure more could be found. I also added the pic the German article is using, and the Commons category link. And the interwikis to both en. and de. I think the article creator should be lashed with a wet noodle, but I note that he doesn't seem to have been notified and nor does the AfD template appear to have been placed on the page. Maybe after those are done he will add more references himself. Yngvadottir (talk) 17:11, 29 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep It is an important historical part of Hamburg and I believe it deserves mention here.- JustPhil 20:01, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, probably speedy. - No sources for verification in existence? Quite the leap of faith there by the nom.  Just a g-book search  brings up quite a lot of sources for verification. --Oakshade (talk) 23:44, 29 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep. Very notable street of historical significance. Large numbers of references available. --Boson (talk) 00:32, 30 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Speedy Keep. Would have done that myself if I had not been out of action for so long and don't really want to look up all the red tape. Agathoclea (talk) 18:28, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
