Pittsboro Businesses and Buildings

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

Wikipedia is not a directory. This is an attempt to resurrect several articles that have previously been deleted by combining them with information about other nonnotable businesses to produce one great mass of nonnotability. See Articles for deletion/Junken Building (Pittsboro Pizzeria) and Articles for deletion/Frank and Mary's Restaurant and Lounge, along with User talk:Tone. Deor (talk) 13:10, 7 September 2009 (UTC) Delete but I'm sure the writer could move it to a local wiki or start his own local building and business guide. However, wikipedia is not a webhost or an indiscriminate repository. Verbal chat  14:44, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Note: After this AfD was initiated, the article's author moved the article back into his user space in an attempt to prevent a deletion discussion from taking place. (He's used this trick before.) I've undone the move. Let's get this decided here. Deor (talk) 14:08, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete Better suited to some kind of local business directory. Nevard (talk) 03:30, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete or Merge For one thing, this is not the only Pittsboro in America. For another, wikipedia is not intended to be a branch of the local chamber of commerce. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 12:03, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
