North Shore Square

Page makes no claim to notability of this mall. No sources could be found, not even an official website (which is surprising for a mall of this size). Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 17:02, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep:This is a mall of about 1,000,000 square feet with 4 major anchor tenants. If it doesn't pass the notability test, then I submit that about 75% of the malls that have articles on Wikipedia, listed at List of shopping malls in the United States also would not pass the notability test.  The fact that the article is a 2 sentence crappy stub does not automatically make the subject un-notable.  How about writing a better article instead? -Fish Man (talk) 17:20, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I tried to write a better article, but I couldn't find any reliable sources. And so what if other super regional malls have pages?" Other stuff exists" is not a valid argument. Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 00:31, 7 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete unless referenced with evidence of importance by close of debate. Guy (Help!) 00:16, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep: I've added some information and more importantly, some references for the basic facts about the mall. While still a stub, now that it is referenced, I think it can stand on its own better until a user with more information can flesh it out further.  VerruckteDan (talk) 21:45, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * The TripInfo site doesn't look reliable. Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 03:20, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Can you be more specific on your concerns of reliability? If you review this link, it seems to indicate that the data is reviewed for accuracy and that a membership fee is required for a listing.  Given the subscription fee, I think its safe to assume that a mall owner/manager would submit accurate data about their facility.  VerruckteDan (talk) 04:06, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
 * It means that it is a primary source, not a secondary source which is relevant. JoshuaZ (talk) 02:04, 14 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Comment - having investigated this place, I cannot recall ever having found a web of ownerships more complex than this one! (see the goofy Ref. I added to the Article)(ahem they may be goofy ... but they satisfy WP:RS). I for one, would like to see where this trail ends before the Article is decided notable or not, as that complexity alone may proove the Mall notable.
