Jordan Hall (Stanford University)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Subject is a building/hall of Stanford University. The info already in Main Quad (is the heart and oldest part of Stanford University in California) under  Description -last sentence of first paragraph so AfD instead of merge. Subject is no notable to be a stand alone article - fails WP:GEOLAND.  CASSIOPEIA(talk) 07:51, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete not enough information to justify a free standing article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:25, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - definitely a badfork - the Main Quad article actually has more content. Would seem a weird thing to type into wikipedia, so probably not redirect Nosebagbear (talk) 16:37, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - I would say roll into the Main Quad (Stanford University) except all the info here is there already (and more).    Jordan Hall houses the Psychology department at Stanford and was the site of the Stanford prison experiment.  It was named after David Starr Jordan the university's first president.  None of this even put together makes it more significant than any other building in the Main Quad and can be easily covered in that article.  I could see a disambiguation link on the Jordan Hall (disambiguation) to  the Main Quad article.  I note btw that the Main Quad (Stanford University) article recently got renamed to just Main Quad which I think is a very bad idea since multiple universities have Main Quads (e.g., University of Chicago, De Anza College, University of Illinois). --Erp (talk) 23:22, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - no justification for an independent article, as above. If this building doesn't warrant an article, presumably the two separate articles on the statues on this building should also be deleted: Statue of Louis Agassiz and Statue of Alexander von Humboldt (Stanford University).

 * Speedy delete under G7 and close per WP:AFDSNOW. Consensus is quite clear and good suggestions have been made. I've updated the DAB page per Erp as well to point interested readers to the main quad article. Wug·a·po·des​ 03:17, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
