Paul Allen's house
Paul Allen's house? I don't see how it is notable. It's simply a very large house, but it isn't very uncommon for rich people to have one. I believe that, unless it is proven that this house holds significant value in some way, perhaps architectural, it does not need to be here. —msikma &lt;user_talk:msikma&gt; 05:50, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete There doesn't seem to be anything special about the house. TJ Spyke 05:59, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - there's nothing special in the article. The house might be notable but the article does not assert why. - Richardcavell 06:00, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep this article. I was doing research on Bill Gates and Paul Allen and found this interesting.  I think with a billionaire it might be interesting when reading about them to see how they live. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.80.78.15 (talk • contribs)
 * What makes this house notable though? There are hundreds of billionaires, should they all have articles about the houses they live in just because they are rich? TJ Spyke 06:24, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Be VERY careful with this line of thought, Anonymous. Go read WP:BLP. Billionaires tend to be a bit defensive of their privacy... --Roninbk t c # 08:34, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as pure nonsense. Ultra-Loser Talk Comparison of BitTorrent sites 07:11, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Bill's house has had press coverage. It hadn't occurred me until this moment that Paul had a house. Gazpacho 09:18, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per everyone else. Moreschi 10:09, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with Paul Allen as the information in it could fit there, then delete FrozenPurpleCube
 * Delete its not verifiable. T REX speak 19:56, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Now that is not true. It's certainly possible to verify someone's residence, heck there are links to official local gov't websites for some of the details.  Why do you claim it's not? FrozenPurpleCube 03:44, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * What I meant was that it is unverified now. Not that it can't be, bad choice of words on my part. T REX speak 21:44, 28 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Merge with the Paul Allen article. This does not deserve to stand alone.- Triviaa 21:36, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Smerge just a line or two about the house into Paul Allen, ditch the map and tax records. This smells like wikistalking. --Dhartung | Talk 12:03, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to his own article, merging anything worth keeping. No assertion is made as to why this paticular pile of bricks is more noteworthy than any other. Article is disappointingly brief - mention is made of "a made-to-order grotto", yet it is not stated whether Mr Allen dresses as Santa every year or whether he got stubble-rash from the false whiskers and had to give it up.

 * Merge -- with Paul Allen before it sets a precedent. - Longhair\talk 13:59, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
