An list whose accuracy is disputed of buildings which are not linked. Not useful for navigation, and given the accuracy dispute not useful for anything else either. Cruftbane 21:19, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

KeepOh, boy. First off, this list is not listcruft, contains factual and verifiable information, and it's actually useful (albeit for a limited audience such as residents of Hartford, people studying city planning, etc., but that is not enough to delete outright). A user suggested that it doesn't provide sources, except that, well... it does; they're just under the External links section. The real problem with the article is, surprise!, exactly what the template says: its accuracy. There are inconsistencies between the information provided by each source. But Wikipedia:Accuracy dispute, an established guideline, does not say delete. It says collaborate to resolve the dispute. Ergo, keep as a useful source of information to a highly notable city in the United States. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 17:21, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- And a note to the above users: Regardless of the outcome of this debate, while we greatly appreciate the work you're doing in helping to clean Wikipedia, please read (or re-read) carefully Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. You'll find out that some arguments, such as WP:PERNOMINATOR, WP:UNENCYCLOPEDIC, WP:JUSTNOTNOTABLE, WP:RUBBISH, WP:IDONTLIKEIT, WP:WHOCARES, WP:IDONTKNOWIT, WP:USELESS, WP:NOTINTERESTING, and WP:LOCALFAME, sometimes don't say anything when not supported and therefore don't contribute much to the discussion. It doesn't mean you can use such arguments, but it'd be best if you'd tell us why you think its not notable, or not sourced, or useless, or listcruft, or violating WP:LIST, or violating WP:NOT... - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 17:21, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment It's not notable because it's not discussed in a non-trivial nature by reliable sources. In fact, the list appears to be a blatant WP:COPYVIO without assertion of permission of one of the external links for the article: see here. --Bfigura (talk) 20:24, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- I see. It was a good catch, the copyvio. It seems the debate is now futile. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 21:22, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
