Selective mergeto ]
- Agree as to the topic not meriting a stand-alone. A redirect would be more appropriate than a merge. This material -- at the time of both nomination and the above comment -- was uncited. The target (now) has cited mention of the mall, which is appropriate in size for an article on the city. Uncited material is not appropriate for merge, and it's silly to mid-AfD create the material with the purpose of only re-creating it again at the target. Epeefleche (talk) 01:09, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

- Keep Satisfies WP:N. This topic has attracted the attention of the world at large as shown with the sources posted above. This evidence is not the opinion of Wikipedia editors arguing "I like it", or the result of promotional efforts by the mall owners. The topic opened in October 1979, and has been attracting attention since 1975. Unscintillating (talk) 03:47, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
