List of Cheesecake Factory locations

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

I'm AFD'ing this rather than prod'ing it because I'm waffling a bit on this article, and thought it could use some discussion. I'm uncomfortable with this article because it smacks of advertising. Is a list of restaurant locations really encyclopedic? I can't really think of much use for this page. There's not enough detail to give directions to a particular restaurant, so it's just a list of cities that have a Cheesecake Factory. Heaven forbid someone would start a List of Mcdonald's article. I'm not aware of any paper encyclopedia (and yes, WP is not paper) that would have such a list. It seems to me the encyclopedic thing to do would be to say on the Cheesecake Factory page that there are X number of restaurants, and if anyone wants the complete list, they can go to the main corporate site. eaolson 15:09, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete; violates WP:NOT. And no, this should not be merged with Cheesecake Factory either. If someone wants to know the locations, they can visit their site. --Mhking 18:09, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete I agree, this is better done via the corporate website. Or just look for the large crowds of people waiting to get in. --Brianyoumans 18:18, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
