Delete unref'd article about an apparently nn street, Carlossuarez46 (talk) 00:38, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep and request for more information and sources. Nobody seems to have notified the author, and theat would be the best way to get improvements. From the article, this may be the major town shopping mall. Not that I know it is, but though the article should have been adequately done in the first place, perhaps it can be rescued. i think it unconstructive, as well as impolite, to bring articles of this sort here without even asking for sources and expansion.

- Keep - I have rewritten the page. The local authority website describes it as "a busy thoroughfare since antiquity" which indicates notability. TerriersFan (talk) 01:50, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete A single bit of tourist-speak on a city website is insufficient. --Calton | Talk 10:30, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete- unless a convincing assertion of notability can be found ("it's been, like, real busy for ages" doesn't cut it). Wikipedia is not a street directory or a travel guide. Reyk YO! 11:02, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - stubbish, and sources aren't much more than trivial, they are more than trivial, which is the key criterion. "Street busy for thousand year timescales" is likely to be expandable, but "stub" is not a deletion criterion anyways. WilyD 12:51, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep-- Notable since antiquity®. Subject worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia. --Jmundo (talk) 21:22, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: Sources are not substantial. Springnuts (talk) 23:02, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - the likelihood is that in-depth sources on this street will be in Greek. Can anyone add the Greek name so we can search on that, please? TerriersFan (talk) 00:27, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
