Oppose. It is hardly a "small" or "undistinguished" shopping centre. Your spelling indicates your being an editor based in the US. Are you qualified to propose this? The Harlequin is one of the largest shopping malls in the South-East and contains major stores such as John Lewis and Marks & Spencer. It turned the economy of Watford from decline to prosperity. — | Gareth Griffith-Jones |The WelshBuzzard| — 20:28, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - per Gareth, Considering you're from/in the US I fail to see how you can say a small undistinguished shopping center without even visiting the centre?, I'd say it's very big considering it has shops like Apple, Marks & Spencer, Zara etc!. →Davey2010→→Talk to me!→ 23:03, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or Merge to Watford - Firstly the nominator's location and spelling of centre has very little to do with whether this article should be deleted or not. I think that there is possibly enough content to keep the article, but at the least the content can be merged into Watford. Some extra sources alongside the large coverage in the Watford Observer: [1] [2] [3]. Samwalton9 (talk) 23:55, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Watford#Economy possibly converting it to a new section on the Town Centre. The newly rebranded Hartlequin or Intu Watford appears merely to be one element of the town's retail centre. Peterkingiron (talk) 22:04, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
