Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Oceanwalk Mall

Almost vacant shopping mall which wouldn't be notable even if it were fully tenanted. Rick K 20:02, Aug 12, 2004 (UTC)

And add Sloppy Giuseppe's, a one-off unimportant restaurant. Rick K 21:10, Aug 12, 2004 (UTC)

Ick. The "Sloppy Giuseppe's" reads like horrendous and cliched client-generated radio copy. Take away the name and you're left with "John Q. Italianrestaurant." Delete both. - Lucky 6.9 22:49, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)

The entry for Sloppy Giuseppe's shines as an example of non-information. Delete both. --Ianb 22:52, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)

It should not be deleted, it is larger than most and important for the area... Sockpuppet vote pasted to main page. Moved to discussion page by Lucky 6.9, known loather of sockpuppets.

Delete: It's a shopping mall, with no claim to notability made. Mall of America is notable for being a behemoth. South Square Mall in Durham, NC, is just a mall. No reason given to set this apart from all others. Geogre 00:16, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Delete Sloppy Guiseppe's, too. I do have a shiny quarter that says the author of the article works there. Geogre 00:27, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Delete. WikiSpam, totally non-notable. "Obliterous"? Is that anything like "frabjous"? — Gwalla | Talk 02:02, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Delete. The article appears to describe a small mall that is on its way out. I see no particular claim for notability, but lots of red links. Average Earthman 10:21, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Delete, oh, I guess I have to vote delete, but I really love this article. It sounds like something in a Stephen King novel... or a scene in an interactive fiction game. >UP. The escalator is closed. >N. You are in front of Sloppy Guiseppe's. >Open door. The door is locked. >N. You are in front of Malley's Galley. You can smell french fries. >Enter... But what on earth does obliterous mean? Did the author mean ubiquitous, is it a chain? Or does it mean "obliterated," i.e. it too is closed? [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 01:52, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- From behind the door an obliterous Garbage_Plate jumps out and mauls you. Game over. Try again? Y/N. --Ianb 02:02, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Awed comment: [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith's version is much more entertaining than the article, but I think "obliterous" means something that is obliterating ubiquitously: i.e. it is always and everywhere not or, rather, not everywhere at all times. Geogre 04:56, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  - comment: So, should it link to quantum superposition? — Gwalla | Talk 21:54, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)
    - This slang site has the word "obliterous" and defines it to mean "inelegantly blotto." Unfortunately, judging by the other entries on that page, I don't think the site is very reliable. Most Google hits look as if they're people who meant to use the word "oblivious." There's one reference to "fibrosa obliterous" but it's apparently a typo for "fibrosa obliterans." I don't think "obliterous" is a word, which is a darned shame, since such a word is desperately needed in order to supply a rhyme for "clitoris."

Delete both. User also created an article for Lychee Garden, a Chinese restaurant in the same Florida town (as if there weren't at least 5,000 other Chinese restaurants called Lychee Garden), which I already speedy-deleted. Oh, and megaprops to Dpbsmith, who had me rolling on the floor. Bearcat 10:37, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)
