List of tallest broadcasting towers in Atlanta

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Plainly fails to meet general notability guidelines (WP:GNG) and also WP:NBUILDING guidlines. The only source cited is blacklisted (or so I've been told). I favor deletion rather than trying to merge into some other related article (such as List of tallest buildings in Atlanta) but wanted to generate consensus rather than PROD'ing it.

 * Comment: List of tallest buildings in Atlanta is a Featured List, albeit an old one from 2008. The concept of "tallest structures in Atlanta" is surely notable, and the page currently lists the tallest broadcasting tower as being taller than the tallest building, so I'm inclined to lean toward a merge. I'm having trouble sourcing the tower's height, though; the address listed for the tallest one is incorrect, but from Google Maps there does appear to be a broadcast tower at that entry's coordinates, which are different than the address. If the listed height ends up being incorrect, we could probably just delete. Otherwise, we'll want to merge to the buildings page, and perhaps send it to WP:FLRC if it does not appear up to standard. &#123;{u&#124; Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 23:12, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:V and WP:NOR. as long as city-data.com is the only source. This is not a reliable source for information, per their about page, Please note that a lot of content on our site is user-generated. Looking at the source, it seems as though someone has checked all of the towers and then listed what they determined to be the tallest, a violation of NOR. Not to mention that there is no indication of passing NLIST or GNG, the relevant guidelines. If there is a source verifying the heights of these towers and placing them in context of the list of tallest buildings in Atlanta, merge there. Otherwise, we have no choice but to delete.

 * Delete per Eddie891's good reasoning; there is an unusual amount of over-information in Atlanta television and radio articles about individual communications transmitters that isn't found in any other market's articles, and this just adds to that pile of CRUFT.

 * Comment: Merge instead of delete:- Can be merged into List of tallest buildings in Atlanta Shahoodu (talk) 12:26, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Even if we can verify the heights of the towers as the IP lists above, they cannot be presented as X tallest structure in Atlanta unless there is a reliable source saying that it is X tallest structure in Atlanta, which is where V and NOR concerns come in. And up to this point in the discussion, nobody has presented a source that does that-- and I cannot find one. Eddie891 Talk Work 12:29, 11 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete - fails WP:LISTN because this topic does not have WP:SIGCOV in WP:RS nor does it have any purpose as a navigational list Spiderone  15:52, 11 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Merge Also, @Elms, the link you left in your comment is an essay, an opinion, not a policy or guideline. Plus, as @skdb mentioned, this was a featured list.   Dswitz10734 (talk) 18:54, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
