Hi. Have you read these articles? If so, which ones contain substantial coverage of the shopping center? Also, which of these sources don't fall into the following category -- the 'local' clause of WP:CORPDEPTH -- "attention solely from local media, or media of limited interest and circulation, is not an indication of notability".--Epeefleche (talk) 09:27, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I've read a few of them. They talk about things that took place at the mall like events, car accidents, police incidents, etc. Some of the other articles talk about merchants in the mall. In my opinion, the scope of coverage by these articles means it should pass WP:GNG. --LauraHale (talk) 10:01, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I don't believe that we consider a mall notable because an event took place at it -- that is run-of-the-mill mall life. Or that a car accident took place at it -- it might be more notable if the mall never had a car accident. Or a police incident; same. I think that sort of coverage, which is also not quite about the mall, would among other things fall into the trivial, passing mention category. IMHO. Best.--Epeefleche (talk) 19:59, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete. I can't use the Monash U. database; but the articles cited by LauraHale don't appear to show show any in-depth coverage. Under the "No inherited notability" section of WP:CORP, they wouldn't provide justification for keeping the article. My own Google search failed to turn up any coverage substantial enough to satisfy WP:CORPDEPTH. Ammodramus (talk) 15:12, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:GNG. No significant coverage in reliable sources. Rangoondispenser (talk) 02:17, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
