Seems to be an unreferenced essay. Tagged for notability for over 5 years. Boleyn (talk) 10:25, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment: As it currently stands, a large portion of the article consists of links to other relevant Wikipedia articles. A possible solution which preserves this useful categorization of links is to create a "Pre-Columbian Engineering" category containing these links or turn it into a list article by renaming to List of Pre-Columbian engineering projects in the Americas or something similar. --Mike Agricola (talk) 22:24, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
 * REname to List of Pre-Columbian engineering projects in the Americas, which is what it is. I needs some tidying up, but such list articles can be used to identify missing articles.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:02, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Rename/keep as list This is a topic that's under-represented on wikipedia (WP:Systemic bias) and the list offers links to existing articles and may also, as Peterkingiron says, spur the creation of new articles. --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:28, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Rename - as Peterkingiron said, its list article and should be titled as such.--Staberinde (talk) 19:18, 21 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Comment from nominator I think making it a list is a good idea. Boleyn (talk) 12:43, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
