The result was   delete. The arguments as to lack of notability are solid, and User:Peripitus's analysis is convincing.-- Kubigula (talk) 21:08, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not a directory; this shopping centre is not notable. Delete both articles about it. JohnCD (talk) 20:36, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete both WP article List of shopping centres in Australia is available for listing of shopping centres.  Neither of the articles demonstrates any notability for Hollywood Plaza.  Notability needs to be demonstrated against a suitable criterion such as WP:COMPANY.  WP is not a retail directory.  Dolphin51 (talk) 02:02, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep one the that is named correctly and delete the other because there are articles about the other shopping centres in Adelaide (List_of_shopping_centres_in_Australia). I know this is not normally a valid argument to keep, but I don't understand why this one has been specifically targeted. To me it's notable at the local scale.

 * Delete both - as a local, this falls at the bottom of the notability scale for medium Adelaide shopping centres. Has attracted no news interest apart from "X happened at Hollywood Plaza". There is simply insufficient material from reliable sources to write anything other than a directory listing. In comparison, Westfield Tea Tree Plaza has been written about in terms of the history and development of the suburb, the construction of Myer Centre, Adelaide filled newspapers for quite a while, Elizabeth Shopping Centre has lots written about it in books and so on. This one was built, is full of shops and that seems about all that can be said about it. - Peripitus (Talk) 07:12, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
