Dubai Creek Harbour

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Brochure article that fails the new WP:NCORP standard. Absolute advertising that asserts WP:NOTADVERTISING. scope_creep (talk) 08:13, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

 * It isn't a corporation, it's a HUGE property development that's received a lot of substantial coverage. FloridaArmy (talk) 16:58, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment All property developments everywhere have a company of one kind or another that controls the money. This one is no different. scope_creep (talk) 05:33, 2 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep This page was a merged page from The Lagoons, because the development name has changed. This isn't a brochure of interest, merely stating facts about what the development is. This is a large development in Dubai, so therefore deserves to be recognized by having a page for itself. the page is likely to grow and develop by others once the development is completed and more information is available. This shouldn't be deleted, as It's all factual with cited sources, and also from a previous live page. AETEST (talk) 12:19, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
 * It may be factual but Wikipedia is not a web host, nor an advertising platform. The articles asserts WP:NOTADVERTISING and it wholly advertising. scope_creep (talk) 17:09, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree, but there is no easy answer to these plausible spammers. I would suggest we delete the present article with the proviso that someone with no discernible COI shall be encouraged to re-start from scratch. Deb (talk) 17:28, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Note to closing admin User:AETEST is a WP:SPA with obvious WP:COI. scope_creep (talk) 17:09, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete This isn't notable by GNG standards, no matter the amount of effort the PR people have put into it. Wikipedia isn't a place to advertise things, it's an encyclopaedia. Exemplo347 (talk) 21:39, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Per above.--SamHolt6 (talk) 03:07, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
