 * Delete . I'm finding some local coverage for events occurring in this unofficial "gated neighborhood", but most are trivial mentions, and there is nothing national or international to make it rise above the many other residential neighborhoods of the world (WP:MILL), and very little direct coverage about the neighborhood itself to meet the "significant coverage" bar of GNG. This and the article's current promotional tone make the subject unfit for an encyclopedia. Mz7 (talk) 02:49, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep (and rename) per WP:GEOLAND as a legally recognized place. Rename to South Bluffs Warehouse Historic District, Memphis. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on June 04, 1987. VMS Mosaic (talk) 11:19, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
 * The South Bluffs Warehouse Historic District is probably notable due to its National Register of Historic Places listing, but I don't think that's what this article is describing. According to the National Register Form, The South Bluffs Warehouse Historic District is an architecturally cohesive collection of late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century warehouses located along the bluff of the Mississippi River to the south of downtown Memphis, Tennessee. The article currently describes a residential neighborhood of houses and apartment complexes in Memphis that also happens to be called South Bluffs—not a collection of historic warehouses. Does the residential neighborhood also have legal recognition to satisfy WP:GEOLAND? Mz7 (talk) 23:24, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I believe the article is currently about a well defined neighborhood, South Bluffs, which is located in the South Bluffs Warehouse district. I'm suggesting the article be expanded to cover the entire district. Much of what is currently in the article would remain. VMS Mosaic (talk) 00:37, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I see. In that case, I've struck my delete !vote. Nice find on the Historic Places register. Mz7 (talk) 18:22, 24 December 2015 (UTC)
