Place management

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Despite the fact that an Institute of Place Management exists, I feel that the term is too much of a neologism to be included here yet. Also the article is too much of an essay and is spam having originally been created at Place Management by user:Instituteofplacemanagement. -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 12:06, 5 February 2008 (UTC)


 * The term has been in usage for decades, with an established literature (which can be added in as references to the entry) and many thousands of people across the world now employed as place managers. There is also an existing link from the 'urban design' page, suggesting that the term is understood in other, related contexts. With this in mind, I do not think deletion is warranted, although some improvements might be in order.Hththt (talk) 21:47, 5 February 2008 (UTC)


 * This article is a valid (and much overdue) addition. The term 'place management' is not an artificial neologism, created to facilitate interest in its study, but rather a legitimate one that reflects the tangible and acknowledged impact of, and progress made, in the field over the last 50 years - both at an academic and a practitioner level —Preceding unsigned comment added by Manchest2r (talk • contribs) 10:23, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * keep There seem to be sources, though the articles needs to be rewritten--it seems somewhat overenthusiastic and I am not surprised it aroused suspicion. DGG (talk) 02:09, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
