Victoria Park Avenue[edit]

Redirect to List of roads in Toronto#Victoria Park Avenue. Current article contains nothing more than a bloated description of the route. One of over 100 "major roads" in Toronto that supposedly deserve their own standalone article. Vague and incorrect history can be added to target until such time as I can make it accurate. ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ ^τ _¢ 22:30, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Important Note - Less than a week ago, List of roads in Toronto was a simple list with multiple wikilinks to articles of streets included in the list. It was only less than 7 KB long.
Here is what it looked like on February 3, 2011.
On February 3, the nom then took various contents from all of those articles and placed them in this list article and removed most of the wikilinks, including to Victoria Park Avenue.[1] That article is now over 109 kb, way too long per WP:SIZERULE. I suppose this was all part of an effort to delete most Toronto street articles and just have summaries in this new parent one and add content from his own userspace for streets that had no articles and this AfD is an extension of that effort.--Oakshade (talk) 23:50, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep per WP:SK — the nomination fails to advance an argument for deletion. Colonel Warden (talk) 20:00, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect - Per nom. Dough 48 72 21:39, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Major and important road in both Downtown and greater Toronto, so much so it even has it's own subway station - Victoria Park (TTC). Far too much topic-specific content to more to an already too large article that should be just a list anyway. --Oakshade (talk) 23:50, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The subway station has its own article! - ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ ^τ _¢ 00:39, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I've done some significant reworking and expanding, so this article should stand alone well on its own now. - SimonP (talk) 18:35, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
redirect per nom. All information easily could and should fit in the list mentioned.--Yaksar (let's chat) 02:39, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
