List of major slaughterhouses

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Unsourced list without any qualifiers for "major slaughterhouses". Does this refer to number of slaughtered animals, weight of roducts, areal of the enterprise, number of workers? --jergen (talk) 13:30, 30 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep – per WP:LIST. However, get rid of the “Red Links” they can be added later as articles are written Shoessss | Chat  13:41, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, defining a slaughterhouse as "major" or otherwise is subjective and therefore POV. Lankiveil (talk) 14:01, 30 December 2007 (UTC).
 * Comment – No it is not. We define “small" and “LARGE” business, “tall” and “short”, “Skinny” and “fat’ and so on and so on. What business you may consider as not major in a large city could be extremely major in a small village and be just as notable.

 * Comment, so, how "major" does a slaughterhouse have to be to be included? Is a business with ten employees in a village of twenty (50% of the workforce!) "major"?  The criteria are way too slippery to be anything other than purely subjective.  Lankiveil (talk) 16:02, 30 December 2007 (UTC).


 * Delete - I agree that "major" by definition of the article could be considered subjective, although is it mainly that the article is completely unsourced and for me, provides no real value which is my reasoning for delete. It is basically listing the locations where the apparant "slaughterhouses" reside, with no info on them, no reference for their existance, and no reason given as to why they are major, or indeed what it is they apparantly slaughter.

 * Categorize. Easier to maintain. --Blanchardb- Me • MyEars • MyMouth -timed 15:02, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, per WP:NOT. A slaughter house is nothing more than a shop. And I dont think that such content should be allowed in Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a directory or database of information. - Rustam  17:05, 30 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Categorise Blanchardb Computerjoe 's talk 20:38, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment, I dont think a list of slaughterhouses is important enough for either an article or a category - Rustam  11:12, 31 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete although if I knew of an encyclopedic reason for the list, I'd change my vote. I don't see why anyone should care what the major slaughterhouses of the world are. If they do, this list might fit in Slaughterhouse. Noroton (talk) 21:43, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom, slaughter this article. "Major" is POV and none of these slaughterhouses seem to have individual notability to justify categorisation here.--h i s  s p a c e   r e s e a r c h 13:00, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Specific parameters should be added to qualify additions to the list, if this is the only problem then it can easily be fixed. Furthermore, we must allow for organic expansion of articles before we can consider for deletion! -- Librarianofages (talk) 22:01, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
