Monopoly pub crawl

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

A weird mix of original research, unsourced speculation, how-to guide and directory. I have no doubt at all that Monopoly pub crawls can and do take place. I have every doubt that being mentioned in passing in an episode of Red Dwarf confers notability on something that could equally well apply to anything listing multiple place-names. – iride  scent  20:11, 30 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge to Pub crawl along with all the other articles in Category:Pub crawls. If enough verifiable material builds up on any of the pub crawls for a decent sized standalone article they can be split in summary style. By merging them now it would save future AfDs, and also keep the main information in one appropriate place where the crawls can be studied in context.  SilkTork  *YES! 09:31, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep - it's far too long to merge into the existing pub crawl article, and it certainly merits an article - it's a common enough pub crawl, and much easier to do than the almost impossible Circle Line pub crawl. Tris2000 (talk) 11:22, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge to Pub crawl: none of the external links are WP:RS -- Александр Дмитрий (Alexandr Dmitri) (talk) 21:04, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - this will make pub crawl far too long. There are lots of famous pub crawls. The Circle Line pub crawl where we try and drink a beer at every stop on the Circe Line is probably more famous. Trust me guys, I live in London, I drink a lot of beer, and this is notable enough to have its own article. Tris2000 (talk) 15:55, 10 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete and merge if wanted. Tris2000's argument that it is too long to merge into pub crawl is dealt with by merging an abbreviated version: it is totally unnecessary to have such extensive coverage of such a fringe topic. I can only assume that "Trust me guys, I live in London, ..." indicates that Tris2000 has limited knowledge of Wikipedia's policies and methods. We do not assess notability by the subjective assessment of involved or interested individuals: we assess it on the basis of substantial independent coverage. No evidence of any independent coverage has so far been shown, either in the article or here. I agree with iridescent's assessment: this is a piece of trivia.
