Article about a non-notable group of buildings. My attempt to get it merged into the article on the University has been stymied by the initial creator of the article. Corvus cornixtalk 04:20, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Non-notable group of buildings? It's at a major university. Merging it with the main article would clutter up that main article and make it look very unprofessional and unorganized.Bus2Beezlebub (talk) 04:27, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Saint_Joseph's_University#Buildings doesn't look cluttered, unprofessional or unorganized. Corvus cornixtalk 04:28, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That's not a detailed list of buildings. It just names certain notable buildings throughout the campus. I wanted to list the number of residents that each hall houses, the locations of those buildings, when they were built, and the types of housing available.
Go ahead and delete it. It's not worth arguing about.
- If the article's creator is willing to merge the information into the University page, as I requested at the beginning of all of this drama, I will withdraw this nomination. Corvus cornixtalk 23:41, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge into main university article; not notable enough for its own article. Mr. Absurd (talk) 01:44, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

- Merge into Saint_Joseph's_University#Buildings - there are plenty of precedents of having separate omnibus pages on student accommodation, e.g. University of Exeter Halls of Residence. However, those cases are where the amount of material justifies it. In this case most of the material is already in the target section and merging a few facts and figures would cause no problem if done sympathetically i.e. keep as prose and avoid a list.
