The result was delete. There was a clear consensus that this hotel lacked sufficient notability for a standalone page. However, I see no reason not to merge the content so I will merge, as an editorial action, and make a protected redirect for GFDL reasons. TerriersFan (talk) 18:33, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Non-notable hotel that was torn down 12 years ago Ecoleetage (talk) 01:35, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - notability not asserted or established; top few hits lead here but otherwise very spotty. Frank  |  talk  02:23, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete or possibly Merge to Wheeling, Illinois. There is a single source, a local city newsletter, that talks briefly about the hotel as having historical significance. No other sources are mentioned and I could not find any after a bit of looking. Not enough here to pass WP:N. Incidentally, may also be a minor copyvio case since the text of the WP article is taken verbatim from the above mentioned newsletterBut since the text is so short, that is probably not a big deal. The main problem is the apparent lack of notability. One other possibility would be to merge the article to Wheeling, Illinois since there is actually some sourced info here.

 * Delete. No indication (and none found during search) that this structure ever had anything but WP:LOCAL significance, such as landmark status or inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places. --Dhartung | Talk 04:48, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per WP:N.  a s e nine  say what?  05:48, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge. Preserve the information and improve Wheeling, Illinois at the same time. --AnnaFrance (talk) 19:56, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
