List of United States shopping malls by state
The individual state lists seem to be gaining consensus to delete, it's time that this list went away too. Categories can do the job. Note that there was a previous AfD for this list at Articles for deletion/List of United States shopping malls by state, which was a close, no consensus. ++Lar: t/c 03:39, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as nominator ++Lar: t/c 03:40, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete this, too. The categories are much more useful.--Core des at talk. o.o;; 05:18, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete wikipedia is not the yellow pages. -- Koffieyahoo 05:23, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete this is what categories are for, people. --Icarus (Hi!) 06:42, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. The only thing a list can do that categories don't do better is include redlinks, and we don't actually want to encourage people to create articles on every single shopping mall in America. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 10:24, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I created the first of these lists back when they didn't have associated categories. (Personally, I think mid-sized or larger malls are more notable than others seem to give credit for.) Although 70-80% of the listings are blue links now and the categories have been created/expanded accordingly, there are still some fairly large ones that are red that someone could eventually turn into articles. If at all possible, I'd like to have the individual state lists userfied. Thanks. Kirjtc2 13:02, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * That's a lot of userification!! it may best to put notes to that effect on the individual noms... I broke them up so that more than one admin could do the work instead of one monster project to delete all 50... but that means that multiple admins need to be aware of your request (more efficient to do it during the delete than to ask later... so make sure they know! ... but if any are missed, ask me, I'll do it) ++Lar: t/c 18:21, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I took the liberty of doing a copy/paste job for all existing lists and putting it at User:Kirjtc2/Malls - if you feel their histories need to be preserved, then go ahead with the userfication, otherwise, don't be too concerned about it. Kirjtc2 20:09, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
