List of tallest buildings in Wichita (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

Just a small list, only one entry has an article. Ipatrol (talk) 15:31, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong Keep - No justified reason for deletion. Jenuk1985 | Talk 16:59, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep; no valid reason for deletion has been given. Redlinks are an invitation to expand the encyclopedia. Things like Featured Lists require a minimal number of redlinks; standard-quality lists do not. Ironholds (talk) 17:03, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep An entirely notable list. Redlinks or the size of the list are no reason to delete it. ♪Tempo di Valse ♪ 17:15, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge to the main article about Wichita, Kansas. Just because someone created a template for "lists of tallest buildings in the United States" does not mean that everyone is entitled to an article about the tallest office buildings in their favorite town.

• Merge unless more notability can be demonstrated. Nerfari (talk) 23:16, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep I'm not seeing a policy or guideline that would require deletion of this list. I'm willing to change if anyone has one. Does WP:N apply to lists? Hobit (talk) 18:34, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well WP:COMMONSENSE says there has to be a limit. You can't have a list of tallest buildings in every village. Nerfari (talk) 20:43, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Well no, but Wichita is the largest city in Kansas in population terms. Ironholds (talk) 23:13, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Template:US tallest buildings lists has only 68 cities, so I'd imagine that there will be a list for "every village". (I looked for a discussion of how the cities were selected for the list in this template, but didn't find one. That would be the place to go if you were worried that these lists were including non-notable cities, towns or villages.) -- llywrch (talk) 21:36, 30 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • Maybe when someone makes an article, it gets added to the template. Nerfari (talk) 19:13, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • WP:PAPER would imply you could. I could see stopping at cities that have no buildings higher than size X (10 stories? 20?) Hobit (talk) 17:54, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge Into the Witchita article. There is inadequate notability to justify a standalone article. Pastor Theo (talk) 23:45, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Notable and sourced Jwray (talk) 06:10, 30 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Who was it that said being the most notable Socialist in the US was the equivalent of being the tallest building in Wichita? -- llywrch (talk) 21:36, 30 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - This is not a list of the tallest buildings in a "village", but rather that of the largest city in Kansas. -Marcusmax(speak) 01:46, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Certainly a BIG city then. Nerfari (talk) 19:17, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - Wichita is the largest city in Kansas. This list can be expanded as articles are created for the different buildings. I haven't seen any policy here that says this should be deleted.WackoJackO 15:16, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
