Skyline Mall[edit]

Utterly unremarkable office building mall. Is any of it still in operation, other than the Target they were putting in last I heard? —Largo Plazo (talk) 00:15, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

~~Weak neutral~~. I did find this substantial source which documents the replacement of the whole mall with a Target store (there's your answer), but otherwise I'm finding nearly bupkis. If the towers had a page I'd suggest a merge to their page, but I don't know if said towers are notable enough.

Weakest of keeps I was hoping there was a policy to offer some guidance, you know, like a WP:MALL. Of course there is, and it was abandoned because they couldn't reach a concensus. I see over 2500 ghits for it, which doesn't mean much by itself. I lean to keep only because there isn't a real policy to guide me on why it should be deleted, and it is pretty hard to apply general notability here. My guess is that since it is 31 years old, something interesting can probably be dug up about it. I did find one article from [1] that tells the whole story pretty well, better than the article.

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

Changing to weak keep. I've done a slight WP:HEY job on the article, mainly with the one source that I found. There are a couple less significant hits on Google News, so I say it's salvageable, if not by much.
