List of points of interest in Albuquerque, New Mexico

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article resembles a travel guide and without an easily discernible criteria for inclusion, what could prevent this from becoming an indiscriminate list of thousands of "points of interests"? Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 11:18, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete I don't think it's a travel guide, because I don't think it's anything at all! No lead section, no description, no clear selection criteria - it's just an indiscriminate collection of links.  If this was a new list, I'd say "give it time", but it's not a new list. – Philosopher Let us reason together. 19:56, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete The category is sufficient. --BDD (talk) 21:17, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep could easily incorporate into another article (such as Albuquerque, New Mexico) as far as notability is concerned, but the list is long enough that a separate list article is helpful. Clearly is not an indiscriminate list because it only includes points of interest in Albuquerque per WP:DISCRIMINATE.--Paul McDonald (talk) 22:10, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - Passes WP:LISTPURP. This article consists exclusively of blue links, and it's likely that the articles listed therein are notable. Northamerica1000(talk) 11:13, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep as useful for navigation per description in WP:PURPLIST; provides better and more organized information than a bare category. Would fit into the city article but its length merits breakout to a standalone list. - Dravecky (talk) 17:22, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Keep - Generally I'm against the maintenance of such lists, however this list is pretty useful and encyclopedic. Eduemoni↑talk↓ </b> 13:41, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - I've refined the parameters to make this a list of points of interest "for which there are articles in English WP," which tightens and focuses the scope of coverage and emphasizes the page's utility as a navigational device. Carrite (talk) 16:14, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
