If Articles for deletion/Georgia Tech Freshman Experience was deleted, I don't think this is in any way notable. dihydrogen monoxide (H2O) 11:15, 21 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment Georgia Tech Freshman Experience appears to have been re-created and is quite a decent article. Unless it's going back up for deletion this moment I'd suggest merge as I agree, individual dorms aren't notable TravellingCarithe Busy Bee 17:26, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Well, I still think it was a bad idea for an article, but at least it has external sources for notability claims now. --Dhartung | Talk 18:04, 21 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete. Unless bearing historic designation, residence halls are generally not notable. Longstanding precedent that is unrelated to the GTFE. --Dhartung | Talk 18:04, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. As unnotable as the hundreds of apartment buildings in the city that I live in.-- brew crewer  (yada, yada) 20:28, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge into Georgia Tech. This single dormitory does not seem to be overtly notable, but a lot of the cited information present in the article can certainly be merged into the GT article. Happyme22 (talk) 22:38, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Individual college dormitories are almost never notable except when architecturally important. A few may be, for some particular disaster or great historical importance, but that would be about it. None of that applies here. There are no external sources for notability--dhartung, what do you see--I see 3 sources from within Georgia Tech & nothing else. I cant see how anything here is even significant for the main article on the university, except as one on the list of dormitories, butI'd leave even that to the college web site. And I'll be glad to renominate their Freshman orientation program for deletion DGG (talk) 01:47, 22 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete per DGG. See also Articles for deletion/Armstrong Hall (Georgia Tech). Regards, High on a tree (talk) 03:23, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Apart from the fact that I lived there for one quarter of my freshman year, I can't think of any reason why it's notable. Armstrong Hall (Georgia Tech) is equally non-notable, as are the rest of the dorm articles, as yet un-nominated. None of these buildings were designed by nationally prominent architects or have received notice in the design community.  Acroterion  (talk)  20:09, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to Georgia Tech Freshman Experience or a new article Georgia Tech Freshman Experience Halls of Residence. The precedent is University of Exeter Halls of Residence. There is no point whatever in deleting just this hall when there is a whole bunch of other identical halls - by all means add the other halls to the AfD or, as is my preference, to create an omnibus article but lets deal then all together.

 * Keep or merge, it's worth at least a little content somewhere. Everyking (talk) 03:26, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete for lack of architectural or lasting historical importance. Biruitorul Talk 17:36, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, the editors in Wikiproject Georgia Tech are busy creating more of these residence hall articles rather than making any effort to merge. Phlegm Rooster (talk) 08:37, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
