[edit] Willowbrook Mall (Houston, Texas)
This article was speedy-deleted as CSD G11 spam. A DRV consensus overturned. This matter is submitted to AfD for full consideration, in particular concerning WP:V requirements. This is a procedural listing, so I abstain. Xoloz 17:00, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. NN mall. If WP:CORP applies, it fails to meet the criteria in any real significant way. Just because one can prove it exists (until it's demolished) does not make it encyclopedic. It's just a mall. Agent 86 19:51, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Malls are important parts of communities. They are no different than individual companies, skyscrapers, colleges, etc. --- RockMFR 22:02, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
- keep this one please article is very good and has sources too plus it should meet corp guideline Yuckfoo 22:23, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

- Delete as nn advert. Nothing in the article suggests notable. meshach 01:13, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep -- this mall is an important facility in the Willowbrook area of Houston. Postoak 01:44, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Comment - Remedial actions - I've added a few references and fixed a few problems. The article is now part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Houston. This is a new article and should be allowed some time for development. Thank you for your consideration Postoak 22:00, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per Agent 86. Leuko 01:46, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Weak delete. I might switch over to a "Keep" if more references could be provided which showed the mall's notability, but as it stands, there's not enough. --Elonka 03:56, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Nothing in the article asserts that it's any different from any other mall, and I don't believe malls are noteworthy by default. The reference is a dead link, and searching the newspaper's online archive does not turn up an article with the headline mentioned. Shimeru 05:34, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Its gross leasable area shows it to be a regional mall rather than a local mall. Edison 18:30, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete or Merge per WP:LOCAL, no evidence of notability outside of the local region provided. Yet more mallcruft. Xtifr tälk 20:07, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per User:RockMFR comment above. —RJN 23:10, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per User:Postoak comment above. — Clipper471 16:33, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
- Comment — Willowbrook Mall has been cited in a headline as "a popular mall." Also, the mall has been one of Houston's top five mall in both square footage and return per square foot.Popular mall sells for $145 million Houston Business Journal, March 30, 2001.

- Keep Article would benefit from expansion and reformatting, but it meets the reliably sourced verifiable material required by WP:CORP for inclusion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alansohn (talk • contribs) 16:45, December 3, 2006
- Keep. Rebecca 02:06, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Sourced and verifiable. --Oakshade 23:19, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- 'delete "top 5" for a city is not notable, and neither is the mere word "popular" If it weren't it wouldn't be in business.All successful malls are popular. DGG 01:31, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
