Saga Communications Tower Alleman[edit]

As cleanup following successful batch deletions of unremarkable masts, I'm nominating another 21 radio and TV towers on mainland USA which are below 460 meters tall (there are still 21% of all the masts listed which are 460m tall or more). None of the towers that I am nominating are notable in any way whatsoever, as far as I can tell. Most of these have been stubs for over a year, none have any substantial additional information other than their name, location and height. Ohconfucius 07:30, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all unless there is demonstrable proof of some sort of notability besides their mere existence. Zun aid ©^{Please rate me at Editor Review!} 08:03, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all. Absolutely devoid of notability and all articles repeat information included in List of masts except that they're used for TV (which could so easily be added to that article if anybody was interested). I'm sorry that someone put all that work into creating all of these articles, and that someone else has to put all the work into deleting them. Neil916 (Talk) 08:46, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
merge and redirect Why the campaign to remove information from Wikipedia? What harm is this doing? And can we stop these nominations until we see what the consensus is with the previous ones (e.g. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wand TV Tower)? --Sandy Scott 09:30, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment please refer to links above piped in "successful batch deletions of unremarkable masts" for history of consensus deletions. Barring any last minute rush, KDEN TV Tower is headed for a near unanimous 'delete'; There are 2 merges and you're the only vote for 'Keep' in Wand TV Tower and KSAX. There are apparently no issues with the principle of deleting these stubs. The only misgivings are the size of AfD nominations. Ohconfucius 10:46, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and one more thing... please refer to the first mass mast-deletion debate, and note that nobody wanted to do the work to create redirects to another article. As action speaks louder than words, surely that speaks volumes? Ohconfucius 11:06, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all per above unless the articles have some source of notability.--Meno25 09:44, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and salt every single non-notable tower/mast article on Wikipedia. (as I have said in all previous mast/tower AfD nominations) I think it is the only way that this problem of non-notable masts will be resolved. I would also request a review of these mast articles with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Architecture, Wikipedia:WikiProject Television and Wikipedia:WikiProject Radio. Wikipedia is not the MB21 transmission gallery of TV/Radio towers/masts. Any UK based mast information that isn't there should be given to the aforementioned website, and removed from Wikipedia. They won't grow beyond a stub and fail WP:NN miserably as well as WP:NOT#DIR and WP:NOT#IINFO. --tgheretford (talk) 09:50, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment no non-US masts are being proposed for deletion here. Ohconfucius 10:46, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I am aware of that, but there are a good number of non-notable masts outside of the US which need to be reviewed as with the US masts up for AfD as I stated above. --tgheretford (talk) 19:06, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all These articles do great harm by filling Wikipedia with stale copies of non-notable info from a database. The huge number of articles were createdd in April 2005, and add nothing to the database from which they were copied. As that database changes over time, there is no automatic process to move changes into this one. TV stations buy taller masts, or the old one blows down and gets replaced, and we take up server space with stale data. Instead, just include a link to the external database in the master article on masts. Edison 15:43, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
