[edit] Hawker, Australian Capital Territory
- Delete. Thorough, detailed aritcles about neighborhoods are great -- little ones that just say "it has good schools" or whatnot are not so great. --Zantastik 07:53, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and expand This article is certainly not encyclopedic right now, but it could be. I think it would be bad precedent to delete articles about neighborhoods that could potentially expand into something workable. - Jersyko 14:03, Apr 8, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete - It's just a suburb of Canberra (I live in the adjoining suburb about 800 metres away), just like all the other suburbs. There's nothing noteworthy about it.
- Keep and expand - this article has now been categorised as a stub belongoing to part of the Canberra wikiproject --AYArktos 10:42, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. The Canberra Wikiproject is developing all the relevant suburbs. How is a thorough, detailed article meant to come about if it's deleted? Slac speak up! 10:55, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep -- and expand - Longhair | Talk 10:57, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep -- and expand. Many Geographic suburb articles start as minor stubs. --Takver 11:20, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep -- the VfD notice went up two minutes after the stub. There was no chance to improve it. Eventually most towns and suburbs should get an article. --ScottDavis 12:38, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. It's a suburb, not a neighbourhood, for christ's sake. This wouldn't have been put up for deletion if it was in New York - I'm getting seriously sick of having perfectly notable Australian topics put on here because Americans haven't heard of them. Ambi 13:25, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, a stub that's part of a WikiProject needs a chance to expand. Also if we can have articles on Nowhere, USA then we can have one on an Australian suburb. --bainer 09:15, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
