Michigan Ave
I am unsure about this one, but it doesn't look notable. It is just a street. Hit me up if I did something wrong. Tony Bruguier 01:22, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as NN. Lakhim 01:26, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. If by some chance it is kept, definitely needs to be renamed to be specific. Based on the title, I thought it was an article about the Magnificent Mile. - Fan1967 01:31, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as above: WP:NN. --BrownHairedGirl 01:32, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete due to lack of notability, and because the article is garbage. -- Kicking222 01:42, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete: The businesses are most dense between Central and Livernois where someone can eat at their choice of fast food, sit down, Chinese, family restaurants, and more. You can do your laundry, rent a movie or furniture, eat ice cream, get hydraulics for your ride and still make it home by 9pm -- getcrunk   juice  contribs 01:44, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:NN. See also WP:NOT section 1.7 - Wikipedia is not a travel guide. Morgan Wick 02:34, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: Michigan Avenue in Detroit is a major street -- it is U.S. Route 12. However, as I am not from Detroit, I can't make a judgment in the article's notability.  Perhaps the text should go into Southwest Detroit, but I don't know if that's an official neighborhood.  The author has also created Michigan Ave-Corridor, with the same text as this AfD.  Someone who's an expert on Detroit has to look over all of Z180's contribs. --Tinlinkin 04:41, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm from the D. I'll have a look.--Isotope23 13:02, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to U.S. Route 12 Michigan Avenue. US 12 is a major route and but I can't see any good reason to break out one little section of a US Route by it's in-state name. Besides... the article is only about one tiny section of Michigan Ave... US 12 is called "Michigan Avenue" all through the state (and possibly into Chicago).  Still, a redirect would be the best solution here because at least in Michigan, it is always referred to as "Michigan Avenue".--Isotope23 13:02, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I don't think a redirect is a good idea because there have to be many different Michigan Aves. I know there's one in DC, and I think there are other places where groups of streets are named for states. Fan1967 13:41, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Ah that is interesting... Michgan Ave should probably redirect to Michigan Avenue then; which should disambiguate to U.S. Route 12, Michigan Avenue (Chicago), et al.--Isotope23 14:31, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment No redirects to disambigs. Morgan Wick 23:34, 10 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete. Not notable. DarthVad e r 13:42, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - and Michigan Ave-Corridor has appeared too. The JPS   talk to me  15:38, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I prod'd Michigan Ave-Corridor, though since it is a carbon of Michigan Ave I have no objection if the nominator wants to include it in this AfD...--Isotope23 15:41, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep We seem to be keeping all roads - from Ohio Drive to Kentucky State Highway 2259. Why should we single this one out for a higher sandard of notability? --Bachrach44 16:27, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Primarily, this road is already covered at Michigan Avenue & U.S. Route 12. Author just took an aribtrary subset of this long road and created a new article about this little section at a new namespace.--Isotope23 16:47, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notable Aeon 21:29, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Fold the content here into Michigan Avenue & U.S. Route 12 as appropriate and make this a redirect.  + + Lar: t/c 04:21, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete It is just a street and a quick google proves that the text is copied straight from here. Benjaminstewart05 16:55, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
