[edit] Grand Hyatt Dubai
In violation of WP:NOT#TRAVEL, with no assertion of why it is notable. Russavia 18:22, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Major luxury hotel in major economically important city. --Oakshade 16:04, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
- Comment If all 5-star hotels deserved an article, simply based on 'luxury', we would have literally thousands upon thousands upon thousands of articles such as this, with nothing truly notable about them. These are more wikitravel type articles, rather than wikipedia ones. --Russavia 16:16, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
- 5-star luxury hotels are notable. These are places where heads of states, celebrities and corporate CEOs stay and frequently important meetings/press conferences are there. These aren't like the corner Motel 6s. Just because there are a lot of them doesn't magically make them non-notable. Wikipedia is not a paper encyclopedia and there is no practical limit to the number of topics covered. --Oakshade 06:07, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Keep per Oakshade. Also it's a prominent landmark [1] and maybe even the largest hotel in the middle east [2]. Kappa 22:05, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Re-read the landmark article, it 'culminates at the Grand Hyatt Dubai', it doesn't assert it being a landmark. As to being the largest, maybe doesn't work for WP, verifiability does, it either is or it isn't? --Russavia 22:39, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. No assertion of notability. Or does who owns the hotel establish notability? As to being a 5-star hotel, read Star (classification). Not a status that is formally awarded so while nice, not a verifiable fact. Could be a speedy delete as spam or empty. Vegaswikian 22:21, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
