 * Result: Uncontroversial delist. AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:56, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

Citation needed tags which have been there since August 2022. Steelkamp (talk) 05:16, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
 * This is in extremely poor shape, and I've been meaning to get it to GAR for a while myself but keep forgetting.
 * 1) Some of the [citation needed] tags were in violation of WP:LEADCITE, but I did find a decent amount of uncited content elsewhere in the article.
 * 2) Only nine sources is extremely pathetic for a supposedly GA-class article. Compare Merle Hay Mall, which was promoted to GA in 2008 but has held up pretty well. Also compare Tri-City Pavilions or Swifton Center, which are both also GA-class mall articles and considerably more thorough in sourcing than this one is.
 * 3) Tone issues such as " when the Main Street Mall succumbed to the effects of Little Rock's dying downtown", "tenants voiced concerns", "felt that it was a good buy", etc.
 * 4) Most importantly, seven of the nine sources are dead links. For this alone, I think it's a good idea to WP:IAR and speedy delist. Pinging, , , and for their thoughts. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 19:00, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
 * My word, this even went to FAC! Erm, yeah, we'd need the citations needed fixed. It's not so much of an issue that there is only a few sources, but everything in the article needs to be suitably attributed.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 19:18, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Just a note, something being a deadlink doesn't make the citation any less reliable.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 19:19, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
 * It's still a pretty glaring maintenance issue that severely compromises the article. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 19:33, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
 * This is not really a good article in its current state, obviously. Yes the deadlinks need fixing but this isn't really a speedy delist, either. We do need the citation needed tags resolved as well. If no improvements are made, this would likely be delisted in a week or two. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 22:18, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
