 * Comment - The UK split recently failed an AfD (see Articles for deletion/List of farmers' markets in the United Kingdom) and the Alabama split didn't survive a WP:PROD. Maybe the genuinely notable markets could be included on Farmers' market -- Ratarsed (talk) 11:16, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete There are, like, 300 of these within a fifty-mile radius of me. Does that mean I should list them all? Seriously, this is an indiscriminate list and violates WP:NOT. I would say that the very few notable ones should be listed at Farmer's market. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 11:32, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete- as directory and link farm. Whatever distinction is meant to apply doesn't seem to be working - already some entries don't even look as though they are actually 'Farmers Markets', , let alone notable examples...-Hunting dog (talk) 12:45, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete seems like it would be better as a category (we currently have Category:Food markets). A reliably sourced list of notable markets might have a potential use as an informative complement to the main Farmers' market article but I don't think there is anything to save here. There is no additional information that would be lost through categorisation and the criteria for inclusion are currently ill-defined and have lead to a mass of red-linked, unsourced entries as well as those that simply are not farmers' markets.
