The Mall (Edgware)
non-notable mall &rArr;    SWAT Jester     Ready    Aim    Fire!  21:29, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I've been there. Shopping centres like these are thirteen in a dozen. No specific notability, no connections to historical events. Delete. JFW | T@lk  22:08, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Joe 22:44, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Malls and shops are generally not notable. See Articles_for_deletion/Precedents. --Metropolitan90 01:13, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep Anti-mall bias. More notable than many museums noted on wikipedia.  I don't really like malls that much myself, but they are notable institutions.  Bobby P. Smith Sr. Jr. 01:20, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep We have many articles on minor topics. This is worthier than the ads for minor porn stars that don't get deleted. Osomec 03:02, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Just because other non notable things are on wikipedia doesn't mean this shouldn't be deleted &rArr;    SWAT Jester   [[Image:Flag_of_Iceland.svg|18px|]]  Ready    Aim    Fire!  03:55, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I feel that this is a notable institution of commerce. Bobby P. Smith Sr. Jr. 04:05, 20 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete per policy. feydey 19:45, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Nothing in the article makes it appear encylopedic.  Vegaswikian 01:44, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. Encyclopedias are reference books that deal with all fields of knowledge (the word comes from the Greek words enkyklios paideia, meaning general or well-rounded education). Since Wikipedia doesn't have very many size constraints, we can include a lot of stuff. Also, I'm not sure it's worth destroying someone else's work and alienating that person--who could be a contributor to other articles as well--over an issue as uncertain as notability. Something increadibly notable to a physicist may be non-notable to a chemist, for example.--Primetime 21:10, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
