This page seems redundant due to the section Baseball park#Jewel Box ballparks, which does a better job of describing what Jewel Box parks are and incorporates all of this information. Muboshgu (talk) 14:02, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

DeleteKeep the info... somewhere - I agree, it's redundant. I think the info was copied into the other article, rendering it so. Be sure to look for anything that links to it. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 14:57, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete No need for list. On the other hand the section in the main baseball park article could be transformed into an article. I am assuming that the info is correct and can be sourced. Sources should be easy to find. Baseball parks are a topic that authors and journalists like to go on and on about. No one ever lost his job writing about a baseball park. :-) Steve Dufour (talk) 16:05, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- OK, now wait a minute - the list is basically already an article, with the section in the ballpark article being the same list except in a tabular form. If you want a separate article, how about renaming this one to something like "Jewel Box ballparks", structuring it like its copy in "Ballparks", and then replacing the copy in "Ballparks" with a link to this one? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 18:12, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- One thing that works against splitting it out is that the main article has several such tables in it. Splitting out just one of them doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 22:09, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Maybe other lists on that page could be spun out as articles as well. The main article on ball parks should give general information for readers, not lists of every possible subspecies. Steve Dufour (talk) 04:14, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep As it stands, the parent article is unreferenced an pretty long, so there is no reason we couldn't put a {{main}} tag on the section linking it to the standalone article. --Brian Halvorsen (talk) 20:44, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- And if more specific referencing is needed, I know of several websites that have a wealth of information on this topic. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 22:05, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
