Speedy deletion nomination of 3100 W. Big Beaver Road

Hello Sbatts672,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged 3100 W. Big Beaver Road for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Prestonmag (talk) 11:23, 23 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sbatts672: I've done what I can to save this. You may be local and may therefore know where to look for additional newspaper references - I am thinking there may be coverage from 1972 when the building opened (it was evidently a cutting-edge modular design by a prominent architectural firm) and more articles about the various plans to purchase and redevelop it since it closed. Offline sources are fine, but identify them completely: author, title, newspaper, date, and if possible page(s) for newspaper citations, for example. I also see that you included the file name for an image, but did not upload one. If you have a photo you took yourself, please upload it, but use a more specific file name than "Tower", which a bot flagged as unsuitable. A picture of the building would be better than a picture from one of the towers, no matter how beautiful the view, because the article is about the building.
