Kmart Plaza was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was to delete.

This is a spurious, unnecessary disambiguation page. It "disambiguates" Kmart Corporation from Kmart Plaza, Burwood East, itself a candidate for deletion. Regardless of the outcome of the VfD re Kmart Plaza, Burwood East, this page can safely be removed. --MarkSweep 07:25, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Utterly pointless. Gamaliel 07:36, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Kmart Plaza, Burwood East (assuming that survives), or alternatively, Burwood East. zoney talk 13:49, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)
    • I would really disagree with the latter redirect. There are hundreds of shopping plazas that are or have been officially or colliquially known as "Kmart Plaza". Making this into a valid disambiguation page would be more effort than it's worth, and either redirect would be counterintuitive. My vote: either redirect to Kmart or delete. -Sean Curtin 00:44, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)
  • Is Kmart or the company behind this particular plaza trying to astroturf? Hasn't this been dealt with before, and who cares enough about a particular shopping plaza in Australia to have it listed in wikipedia?. My vote: Delete as non-notable. --rernst 14:27, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. It can be easily recreated when and if there is ever a need for it. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 14:32, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: By no means redirect. I have lived in cities all over the South, and there are many, many, many K-Mart and Big K and Kmart Plazas. Geogre 15:13, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Comment: Check the history of that page. It originally referred to a different K-Mart Plaza :P I see no problem with this being a list of Kmart Plazas, but would such a list just be put up for deletion anyway? -- Chuq 00:36, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
    • I think it probably would, because it would be a list that could never be accurately populated. Nearly every entry would be very hard to verify, because, while you can use the Internet to look up a store location almost anywhere, you have a devil of a time knowing that it's the "K-Mart Plaza" instead of the "Bi-Lo Plaza."

  • K-mart has been driven from the country by Zellers and Wal-mart. No more blue light specials. :( The Steve 08:38, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)
  • What will it be called after Sears is done with them? Delete. GRider 17:47, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Jayjg 17:52, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)
