Famous Squares in New Orleans

Even those who subscribe to the notion of laissez les bon temps roulez will have problems with this this highly subjective list. Ecoleetage (talk) 01:11, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unneeded and dubious (several on the list I've never heard of, and I live in New Orleans have collected old maps of the city). -- Infrogmation (talk) 01:15, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per nom.  a s e nine  say what?  06:26, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. How could they be "famous" if 80% of them are red-linked? If they really are, then they deserve a page of their own or a redirect to New Orleans. If more information on each individual square later merited a true page of their own, then a category would suffice. I think we're a long way from having this list page be appropriate or useful.

 * Weak delete. At the moment the two blue links could be included in Famous streets of New Orleans, an obvious category header per WP:CLS (which should just be List of streets in New Orleans). --Dhartung | Talk 23:37, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, the two blue links (Jackson Square, New Orleans and Congo Square) could also go into a List of Registered Historic Places in New Orleans, Louisiana article. I don't know if the other squares are contributing properties to historic districts or not.  I read one link about how Lafayette Square was an important location in the history of jazz music in New Orleans.  For now, though, I'll just go with a delete on this list since it has rather substandard presentation and doesn't give much context on these squares.  --Elkman (Elkspeak) 04:17, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. This is a very short, undeveloped list of mostly red links. If there is potential here, someone will develop a better article in the future. --AnnaFrance (talk) 17:32, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete This is just a list with no information. —  Wen li  (reply here) 02:23, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
