Complete List of Springfield Streets, moved to Complete list of Springfield streets[edit]

What is this article? There is no information here at all! Supersaiyanplough 11:21, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete, and possible Speedy candidate. No context here (I presume it's Simponscruft) and even if there were, there's no potential content. (A list of unimportant street names in the Simpsons! Yay!) A Man In Black 11:28, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • With context, it is no longer a speedy candidate. Even given this, it's not worth merging into Springfield (the Simpsons) and it's certainly not worth keeping on its own. My vote stands. A Man In Black 00:55, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • (Speedy) delete. Even if it was a real town called Springfield, the article fails to mention the state, or even the country it's in. Also, listing streets doesn't provide the reader with any useful information when their locational relationsship isn't apparent. Mgm|(talk) 11:59, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)
  • Speedied. It says "Map to come soon" but it's been lying there for about a week. --khaosworks 12:08, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)
    • I speedied it because there really was no context. Tony Sidaway then restored, then inserted the line about it being streets in the Simpsons Springfield, so obviously then it didn't qualify. I still stand by my original decision to speedy it as it was. That being said, I still say it should be Deleted as it is a simple listing and provides no useful information aside from that. It's not even good enough to qualify as cruft. --khaosworks 16:08, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Perfectly good article. Restored as it surely doesn't qualify for speedy delete. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 15:55, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with the parent article Springfield (the Simpsons). Would we allow a separate list a streets from any real small town? --Doc (?) 16:42, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Comment. Well it's not a real small town. If Simpsons fans want this kind of thing I see nothing wrong with having it. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 16:51, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • We should, more so than this. --SPUI (talk) 21:56, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, this isn't encyclopedic even if merged. RickK 20:14, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)
  • Weak keep. My thought here is that the Springfield article is long enough. I would guess that most people looking at the Springfield article are not necessarily going to want to see the names of all of the streets. If the text is going to eat up a valuable 700 valuable bytes on the server, why load it every time someone looks at the Springfield article. My assumption of course is that this minutae important information will exist somewhere even if the page is deleted and not merged right now. DS1953 20:41, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, a list of streets in Springfield is not encyclopedic per WP:FICT. --Metropolitan90 01:36, Jun 5, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, unencyclopedic. Tradnor 02:59, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete not encyclopedic. JamesBurns 03:51, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. If the data really is needed, then Merge. Vegaswikian 04:22, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, unencyclopedic. carmeld1 23:09, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. If the data are necessary for some purpose then merge to Springfield (The Simpsons)...but I can't see what a list of street names could possibly be used for. If it must be kept, rename to be more in line with our style conventions, perhaps to List of streets in Springfield (The Simpsons). --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 23:10, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Cut/paste to Springfield and delete. Radiant_* 10:44, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not encylopedic. -- Joolz 01:15, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
