South End, Moncton

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

It is extremely questionable whether this neighborhood exists or not. The only place it comes up on the internet is this very article. Besides, even if it did exist, the population is minimal and there is nothing distinguishing it from the rest of Moncton. Ultimograph5 (talk) 18:20, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment. Cities and towns in Canada's Maritime provinces often were made up of distinct areas characterised by income, ethnicity, language and religious affiliation. This study https://journals.lib.unb.ca/index.php/Acadiensis/article/viewFile/10782/11552 discusses the history of the North End of Saint John, New Brunswick. I am quite prepared to believe that Moncton neighbourhoods a century ago had different demographics, and that these changed as a result of industrialisation and deindustrialization, the changing role of governments, increasing rights and income for Catholics and francophones, and suburban sprawl. There ought to be references that document these changes. Whether those references can save this article is another matter. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 00:14, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete unless sources are provided that vouch for the actual conceptual existence of the neighborhood. And if there are sources, but not much to them, it's likely best to merge and redirect to the city's article. &mdash;innotata 15:49, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete completely unsourced article. Tillerh11 (talk) 18:17, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as unsourced. Every city that exists at all has north, south, east and west parts — so you can't just automatically reify "Cardinal Direction + City" into a neighbourhood, in the absence of reliable sourcing about that neighbourhood being recognized as a thing.
