List of postal codes in Brittany

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This article and all similar articles in Category:Postal codes of France do nothing but list hundreds of postal codess and their corresponding geographic areas. As Wikipedia is not a postal directory, I propose that these articles be deleted. Please note that a similar AfD discussion regarding postal codes in the United States (see here) was concluded on April 21 with a decision to "delete". The closing of that AfD discussion was challenged at deletion review here. -- Black Falcon (Talk) 01:25, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages:


 * Delete Far better to have an article on the postal system of that nation with a link to their website, where one could find accurate and up to date postal codes. There is no merit in Wikipedia attempting to replicate every list to be found on the web, and then to try and keep them updated as they change. Edison 03:02, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete all per above. MER-C 04:54, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - Or move to Wikisource if it is contained in government documents. Seems unfortunate to make someones good faith efforts a waste. --Remi 07:35, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete the segmented and detailed subarticles, or move to Wikisource. List of postal codes in Austria List of French postal codes contains enough info for an encyclopedia article.  Neier 09:50, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. As unfortunate as it seems to delete so much good-faith and hard work effort, good faith does not equal good article and these are a clear violation of WP:NOT and have no place on Wikipedia.  Ark yan  &#149; (talk) 15:47, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: these are directory listings, and wikipedia is not a directory. Ohconfucius 05:33, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
