The Quentin Collection
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log )

Last two AFDs argued that sourcing was sufficient, but further inspection shows the sources to be incidental, trivial coverage or press releases, which do not meet the criteria for third-party coverage.

 * This is a shopping centre of no particular significance. However, there's an alternative to deletion which we should consider: we could trim, merge and redirect this (and, I suggest, every other article from chicagomalls as well) into a new list called list of shopping malls in Chicago, after which the only thing we need to delete is the template.  The main benefit of this is that it saves us a lot of AfDs and there are no more quibbles about notability, because individual items on a list need not be notable.— S Marshall  T/C 17:59, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't say every one by a long shot; maybe just the tinier ones like this. Even the tiny Schaumburg Place has enough sources for its own article. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 18:44, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmm, yes. I see that.  Which of the others do you think need co-nominating?— S Marshall  T/C 18:53, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Better to nominate one by one. I've found sources for pretty much everything that's on that template, including at least a couple of the redlinked ones. Most of what's been nominated today is just very, very small strip malls — which are far less likely to be notable than even a smaller enclosed mall.
