List of abattoirs in the UK

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

I'm not sure what the point of this list is. None of it is sourced, virtually none of them will ever have articles, for the simple reaosn that they are not actually notable, and it was started by an animal rights activist for questionable purposes - I can see how an address directory of abbatoirs would be handy for an animal rights activist, but it's not exactly the stuff of encyclopaedias I think.

 * Delete Going with WP:NOT a directory on this one, list of businesses about which few (if any) would require/warrant an article. The minority of activists who are actually involved in attacks on property etc. will have better access to information than this anyway (as far as protecting the companies concerned). Likewise, those involved in the meat industry in the UK will have access to this information including actual contact details. Will anyone else have any need of this info?

 * Delete Animal rights articles on wikipedia, while in some parts well-written (not this one, I'm thinking of Animal rights itself), are verging on a walled garden.  The AR template is extremely bloated.  Many of these articles should be merged into other pages and deleted.  This one in particular is a POV coatrack, and any useful info should be merged.

 * Delete per nom, most of the article is a POV coatrack, although the information about the live export controversy should be sourced and merged to Live export . Snigbrook 01:19, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
