Quality restaurant

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Per WP:NOT, I think. I'm prepared to be shown to be wrong on this, but this seems non-encyclopedic. I see that it was prodded shortly after creation "Definition not an encyclopaedia entry" and the creator removed the prod notice, saying "removed unclear proposal for deletion that was added before the article was finished. 10 minutes is rather quick...". Hopefully, 5 months has been sufficient to work out if this is suitable for inclusion or not. Colon el Tom 07:50, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Just to know, where does it fail notability or WP:NOT. I do not understand your nomination as you give no clear reason. Night of the Big Wind  talk  09:29, 18 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete: Unless someone can show that there is an actual widely used category of restaurants called "quality restaurants", then this is nothing but WP:OR. When a reviewer calls something a "quality restaurant", they're not classifying it into a certain category, but simply using "quality" as an adjective.  We can't have articles called Good restaurant, Poor restaurant, or Restaurants so bad I wouldn't send my enemies there, even if such phrases are used in articles.

 * Delete - A dictionary definition at best. -- Whpq (talk) 21:08, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmmm, is wat the Michelin Guide who was referring to quality restaurants. See here and here. So no original research, but the opinion of the renowned Michelin Guide. Backed up bij Egon Ronay here and here. Night of the Big Wind  talk  21:30, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Which indicates that we should have a restaurant rating article. -- Whpq (talk) 21:32, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 * You suggest a merge between Quality restaurant and Restaurant rating? Night of the Big Wind  talk  22:11, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 * No. There is nothing worth merging. -- Whpq (talk) 02:37, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
 * A redirect to Restaurant rating looks worthwhile though, as it's a reasonable search term. 109.155.186.44 (talk) 10:23, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I am a bit cautious with that due to the quality of the RR-article. But it might be the best solution. Night of the Big Wind  talk  10:45, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I am in the progress of merging and rewriting of the two named articles. When finished I will show the draft here. If accepted, the article "quality restaurant" will be surplus to requirements. Night of the Big Wind  talk  12:26, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Shoot to kill, ladies and gentlemen, in the best interest of Wikipedia: User:Night of the Big Wind/Workpage17. Originals articles: Quality restaurant and Restaurant rating. Night of the Big Wind  talk  21:12, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

Leaving behind a redirect is fine; as for the new draft version, I recommend leaving a comment on the Restaurant rating and discuss it there. Finally, I left you a note on your draft's talk page. Qwyrxian (talk) 12:18, 20 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Change to redirect - This is a term used in restaurant guides, and should be redirected there. --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 17:45, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Redirect to "Restaurant rating", nothing worth merging. We could argue about whether rating diverges from actual quality, but that's a content argument for another day. bobrayner (talk) 18:57, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * A rating is normally based on quality. Like the quality of food, the quality of service etcetera. Night of the Big Wind  talk  19:39, 21 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Restaurant rating is now completely rewritten and merged with Quality restaurant. Effect is that "Quality restaurant" is now surplus to requirements and can be deleted. Night of the Big Wind  talk  19:39, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - Did you actually merge any content? I didn't really see any merged material, but if you did, then deleting this article would be problematic from an attribution history standpoint.  See Merge and delete for an essay explaining this. -- Whpq (talk) 19:56, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Maybe merging is a big word. Most of the info out of the paragraphs 3 and 4 of the article Quality restaurant are added to the article Restaurant rating, albeit in an altered form. Is that merging or not? Sounding your concerns, I hope not... Night of the Big Wind  talk  20:48, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * redirect somewhere. Stuartyeates (talk) 21:51, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
