 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was   Nomination withdrawn. Given that the one remaining delete vote was cast under a rationale that no longer applies, this AfD may be safely closed as keep. Non-admin closing. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 04:30, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

McGill Street

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Nominator's Rationale - This page should just be redirected to McGill Street (Montreal) or vice versa. I just don't see any point in having a disambiguation page with only one blue link. Parthian Scribe 00:28, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete: I have also nominated McGill Street (Montreal) for deletion.  I don't believe that it is notable.  Regardless of what happens with that, a dab is meant to give readers a choice of articles on ambiguous topics.  If there is only one article, it isn't all that ambiguous.  MOS:DABRL suggests that one blue link with all red links isn't desired.  -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 01:11, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 13:52, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 *  Delete. Keep (see below) Being from Montreal, I am familiar with the one blue item in this dab page, McGill Street (Montreal) (not to be confused with nearby McGill College Avenue), and I can say that while it is one of the oldest streets in the city, it is not notable to outsiders. Crescent Street it ain't. Incidentally, the McGill Metro Station, the busiest in the whole city, was not named after this street. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 15:07, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. I wrote the above comment not realizing that the discussion on McGill Street (Montreal) had already been closed as keep. Still, delete this dab page per MOS:DABRL. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 15:12, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. The link from this disambiguation page to McGill Street (Vancouver) is now blue. -- Eastmain (talk) 16:53, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Not sure that new article will survive an AfD though. But I will not initiate one myself. Until such a discussion is closed as delete, the one we have here is a definite keeper, being a dab page. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 18:02, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Predicting AFD is not our job. For now there are 3 links - 2 ambiguous and 1 possible search term. 23skidoo (talk) 18:56, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * 'The editor who nominated this article for deletion wishes to Withdraw the nomination. Uninvolved editors are asked to review the debate and close it as Nomination Withdrawn. The other articles, which were formerly red links, have been created. The page isn't completely useless anymore.--Parthian Scribe 03:49, 24 October 2008 (UTC)''
