The consistency has to be there

To the person who wishes to speed delete the article please see the article List of defunct shopping malls to maintain consistency. There are may stub mall links in the article and should be looked at with consistency. --Moreau36; 2157, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Disagreeing with prod tag

I have removed the proposed deletion tag from this article, due to disagreeing with it. Dead malls are notable as local history, as established by WP:MALLS. SchuminWeb (Talk) 01:52, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've had a look, but I can't see where in WP:MALLS the notability of dead malls is established. Could you point me in the right direction? Thanks. Inner Earth 11:39, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hm. I thought I wrote that in there. Guess not. It's been a while since I worked with that page, so my apologies. Well, let me explain in here, then. Dead malls are notable as local history for the areas they are in. The decline of malls speaks of their areas' demographics, and changes in same. The redevelopment of dead malls (or lack of redevelopment, whatever the case may be) again shapes local history. Hope that establishes things somewhat.

I would much rather see this information included in the town article, which is an established, expected article. I'm not disputing the importance of the dying of malls, just that this particular one needs its own separate article from East Lake-Orient Park, Florida. -- nae'blis _(talk) 14:26, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

For protection purposes, seen that the previous "dead-mall article was deleted, I did per user above to merge the mall article to the town. --Moreau36 16:09, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
