 * Comment. This earlier version of the article has references that establish notability, I think. Some text was removed from the older version as an alleged copyvio, but the references are still helpful. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 04:00, 1 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Strong keep. This article can be saved by editing the previous version to remove copyvios and adding the new references. The article is also notable in my eyes as one may wish to know more about the very widespread park furniture and not be able to find an article on it.

 * Redirect to a new article "Outdoor furniture" to incorporate park furniture, street furniture, patio furniture and the like. A weather resistant bench is a bench whether installed on the street, in a park, at a golf course or in my back yard. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  07:02, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment there's also "Urban furniture" which is public furniture more generally. see Google search results ‎⠀Trimton⠀‎‎  06:42, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh, definitely keep; parks are part or our culture, and they are defined by what's in them, which includes all those beautiful band-stands, strange ponds and fountains, and weird things that our Edwardian forbears decided to build. As it stands, the article is a mere stub, but it might inspire someone to write an article worthy of our parks and their furniture. Although I see @Cullen's point, I wouldn't merge it with outdoor furniture because it'll end up full of private barbecues and firepits that have a cultural significance but are far removed from civic furniture. Stubs can be good, they are provocative; the concept is notable and encyclopaedia-worthy. Elemimele (talk) 07:45, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep per WP:SK. The nomination "fails to advance any argument for deletion" as it seems to be completely blank. Andrew🐉(talk) 08:07, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep and close per WP:SNOWBALL. Zero rationale provided, and zero evidence WP:BEFORE was even considered.  St ★ lwart 1 1 1 07:40, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep, no reason provided for deletion. Searching finds plenty of news stories using the phrase "park furniture". NemesisAT (talk) 22:34, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep The article is in a sorry state but the concept itself is notable (though I really don't think the sources in the version linked to are a good example, seeing as the first two  don't mention park furniture at all and the other three  are links to companies that presumably sell park furniture) and WP:TNT does not apply.
