Green building by country

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

I split this article out from green building since it seemed like a good thing to do. After creating some categories and a few articles such as Green building in Canada and Green building in New Zealand I thought I may as well go the whole hog and create articles for all the countries on this page. I would then want this page deleted since there would be no need for it. The "Green building in Foo" articles will only grow in number over time and make this page get out of hand in terms of length. Also, due to the nature of the articles a Green building by country page will be difficult to maintain in the long term. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 22:02, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per WP:CSD: Author and only editor explicitly requests deletion. KuyaBriBri Talk 22:32, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Strictly speaking, I was not the author since it was split from green building. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 22:39, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

I wanted to get some idea of the feeling out there before doing any more changes. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 04:24, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Question What about the countries on this list which don't appear to have their own articles? Are you planning to make new articles for each of them and move the sections there before this AfD closes, or what? Olaf Davis (talk) 22:59, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Any countries that are not on the list can have their own page created. If this AfD is successful I will create articles for all the countries on the list before it is deleted. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 01:52, 15 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - Unless somebody can craft some very specific criteria for inclusion (in which case it'd need to be moved anyway), every "green" building is an absurdly large list, and the vast majority of ones that would fit into that list are not notable.

 * Note that this article is about green building (sustainable building) legislation, organisations and practices. There is a Category:Sustainable buildings and structures by country Any non-notable buildings would not get their own article past the various deletion processes. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 01:52, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
