List of landmarks in Chicago

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This article survived a prior AFD when List of Chicago Landmarks was less well developed. Now, that the List of Chicago Landmarks is a WP:FL it should be clear that a listing of the official Chicago Landmarks and National Historic Landmarks in Chicago, Illinois is the proper list for this topic. A quick read of WP:WIAFL should help one to understand why this page is not a good list. It constitutes WP:OR. The only source for this list is the editor who has posted his favorite buildings. There is no reason for anyone to post a list of their favorite buildings and pass them off as a list of landmarks. It is not (WP:NOT) encyclopedic.

 * Comment merge is unacceptable as it would cause us to put WP:FL status at risk.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 20:35, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete for all the same reasons it should have been deleted last time. Otto4711 21:03, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep for all the same reasons it was kept last time or merge with List of Chicago Landmarks. --164.107.222.23 00:27, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Chicago Landmarks as likely search term. Capitalistroadster 02:46, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Category:Registered Historic Places in Chicago, Illinois and List of Chicago Landmarks are officially-selected and verified lists, whereas List of landmarks in Chicago doesn't have set criteria for listing.  --Elkman (Elkspeak) 14:52, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect I agree that it might be best to redirect to Chicago Landmarks for searches.--Kranar drogin 01:06, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Illinois-related deletions.   -- John Vandenberg 14:33, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
