Getu Commercial Center

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The article does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NBUILD: "Buildings, including private residences and commercial developments, may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance, but they require significant coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability." WP:BEFORE showed WP:ROUTINE coverage, but not significant coverage that addressed the subject directly and in-depth or that established it meets NBUILD.  // Timothy ::  talk  11:33, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Did you check for coverage in Amharic? I added what seems to be the mall's name in Amharic to the article, but I'm not positive. I'm not familiar with the main news sources in Ethiopia or how one would check for coverage. Calliopejen1 (talk) 00:58, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  Sandstein   10:14, 5 September 2020 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Given the vagueness of comments and the fact that there has only been one additional !vote, and a weak delete at that, a relist for further discussion is apt.
 * Assuming everything is true, this must be one of the biggest malls in Ethiopia. Bearian (talk) 16:51, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. The only indication of its significance I could find was an article stating that it is "one of the five prime properties in Addis Abeba" (ProQuest ID 1446725835) and another article in Addis Fortune (ProQuest ID 2330256435) stating that it was sold for ETB 210,000,000 in 2013, which is about USD 5.8 million today. That's a fair amount of money, indicating its size and importance, but in the absence of more coverage I'm not seeing a great argument to keep.
