Not every newly created hospital in the most affected regions as a response to the Corona virus outbreak should get a Wikipedia article on it's own. The text of this article may be merged into https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019%E2%80%9320_Wuhan_coronavirus_outbreak I guess this page helps to check if the article fullfills the notability criteria: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability#Whether_to_create_standalone_pages My pov is, the article doesn't fulfills the notability criteria.

 * Keep or Merge, not Delete. This hospital is notable because it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Even if the text of this article is merged into 2019–20 Wuhan coronavirus outbreak, the article should be kept as a redirect page and its edit history should be kept. The appropriate process for this issue is, in my view, Proposed article mergers, not Articles for deletion. --Neo-Jay (talk) 16:17, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep meets GNG, and we include articles about hospitals of similar size and notability in the US & UK, for example. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 17:52, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep meets GNG, and we include articles about hospitals WP:NHOSPITALS passes all three of the criteria. Wm335td (talk) 20:20, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep clearly notable per WP:NHOSPITALS. -Zanhe (talk) 00:23, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep This article is extremely important in which it is being viewed around 3,000 on daily average (from Wikipedia tools). The information is not only about hospital per se, but also on its fast construction technology using prefab (thus civil engineering, construction, speed, fast-deployment, disaster management-related fields can greatly benefit from this new kind of unprecedented knowledge). This hospital article also has been written in other 7 or 8 other Wikipedia languages. From the 'Whether to create standalone pages' Wikipedia page that you wrote as the reason for this article deletion; 1. Does other information provide needed context? yes, it does. This article can't be fully written in the larger article (2019–20 Wuhan coronavirus outbreak) because that Wuhan coronavirus article is too large already (B-class article) with so many information (and it is still growing everyday), thus that Wuhan coronavirus article needs to be broken down into several smaller article, in which one of it is this hospital article. 2. Do related topics provide needed context? yes, it does. All of the hospital-related topics because of this Wuhan virus can't be collected into a single page, because hospital is not a song or movie, which can easily be listed down in a table. Hospital has its different construction history, different address, different geographical coordinates, different date of inception, different Wikimedia Commons category, different Wikidata. 3. What sourcing is available now? There are Hundreds of available legit & verifiable (non-blog) sources from all different languages, different countries and different online news sources, including both government and private sectors.

 * Speedy Keep English Wikipedia not only introduces English speaking countries, if China also uses English as the official language, who would say that those articles about China "are not notable"?--Huangdan2060 (talk) 07:42, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge with Huoshenshan Hospital to form into an article on how authorities in China responds to epidemics in general or a list of temporary medical quarantine facilities in China. For added context, the previous temporarily facility, zh:小汤山医院, which is the model for these two hospitals, used for SARS and other was kept til 2010, abandoned till now when the authorities now decides to renovate it to keep it on standby. We can expect the Chinese authorities to do the same for either of these temporary facilities. robertsky (talk) 04:34, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep， this is an hospital that exposed to internatinoal due to nCOV, soit should be notable. angys  (Talk Talk) 11:20, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep for now. Deletion is not appropriate given the intense interest currently, but a merge is possible sometime in the future (say, to Huoshenshan Hospital or another article on the response to the the Wuhan coronavirus crisis), since notability is not temporary, and it is uncertain whether the hospital will be kept for long-term use or converted for other uses, mothballed or knocked down soon after the crisis is over. The unusual nature of the hospital made it hard to tell whether it is right to merge or not at the moment. Hzh (talk) 13:00, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:OUTCOMES. There's been several recent AfD's on hospitals, and the consensus is that even a small one with 200 beds (which would not be financially functional in the United States) is still notable, if it can be sourced to secondary/tertiary sources. See Articles for deletion/Abdali Medical Center (2nd nomination), cf., Articles for deletion/Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital. I don't see consensus changing anytime soon. Bearian (talk) 20:15, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect The only content in this article that doesn't more properly belong in the coronavirus outbreak article is the etymology stuff; if all we can write on a topic is etymological information on its name, it doesn't belong here. Hijiri 88 ( 聖やや ) 01:23, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:ORGCRIT and WP:NHOSPITALS.--5LZ 07:30, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
