List of Logan City suburbs
WP:NOT Listcruft - we'd need tens of thousands of lists like this to cover the world. John Nagle 06:46, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep, WP:NOT paper. See also List of Brisbane suburbs, List of Melbourne suburbs, List of Sydney suburbs, and many many others. --Cornflake pirate 07:11, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep per above. Given that Logan's a large area, it makes sense to have this list and isn't really putting us at risk of a slippery slope "to cover the world" as yet. BigHaz 07:18, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep per above. --M e rovingian (T, C, @) 07:22, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Close discussion, what you should be asking is if this warrants a merge into the main page for Logan City, Queensland, "the third largest city in Queensland...[and] one of the fastest growing urban areas in Australia." Un-redlink them and merge them into that page, perhaps, but this really isn't the place for discussing that. -- H·G (words/works) 07:40, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, or merge in Logan City. The existence of other, similar bad articles is not a reason to keep bad articles. -- GWO
 * Comment, I can't speak for all of them, but the Brisbane one is certainly being gradually improved and added to. A long process, I'll grant you, but I'd imagine that this one could end up going the same way. BigHaz 09:18, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment did not actually give a reason why this article is "bad". --Cornflake pirate 10:18, 16 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete under criterion A3. It's just a list of links.  I tagged it as such. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Erik the Rude (talk • contribs)
 * Comment if this fails under criterion A3 then so do List_of_economics_topics and List_of_finance_topics which are examples of "typical stand-alone lists" at Lists_%28stand-alone_lists%29. --Cornflake pirate 09:59, 16 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete, BUT... while I don't think the list is encyclopaedic, I think that the creation of a category and a template would be acceptable to serve the same purposes. Each of the pages in the category Suburbs of Logan City or whatever could contain the template, which would still show which suburbs had info present and which did not. GassyGuy 09:03, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - why is category and a template more encyclopedic than a list? To me it sounds like more work for close to the same outcome. See also and Categories_vs_lists. --Cornflake pirate 10:02, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I was giving an alternative to achieve the same purposes that I would find more acceptable. Nobody has to make one if it's too much effort, but that doesn't exactly make me think any more highly of the list, if it's not even serving a purpose that would still be worthwhile if x amount of extra effort had to be put into achieving it. GassyGuy 11:43, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * On an additional note, I had never seen the categories vs. lists page before. I have to say, it's one of the least convincing essays I've read on here. Not impressed and not seeing how it supports this article. GassyGuy 11:47, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Agreed, it's not the best page... blah :) --Cornflake pirate 23:07, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Token delete, replace with category and/or listing in Logan City. Doesn't qualify as CSD:A3, although if they were external links it would. Stifle (talk) 13:03, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per above. Keep is okay too.  JYolkowski // talk 14:52, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge to Logan City, Queensland. -- Wine Guy  Talk  22:14, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Needs annotation. --JJay 23:08, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep perfectly good list, of whicht there are others of its kind. Jcuk 23:28, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as useful list for people working on improving coverage of Logan City. Capitalistroadster 01:59, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Australia-related deletions.   -- Capitalistroadster 02:03, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge into Logan City, Queensland, as above. QazPlm 02:44, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. As it is, a merge is definitely possible, but if annotated this could well be worth a separate article - consider, for instance Suburbs of Dunedin, for an example of what could be done with an article like this. Grutness...wha?  08:46, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. I thought the dreadlocks list was more interesting. Cedars 09:33, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge. No need to have this on a separate page. Not also that the lists of suburbs in Sydney and Melbourne cover whole metropolitan areas, not simply a local government area. JPD (talk) 13:14, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge Per above--Nick Y. 23:22, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
