Florida zip codes

Unsourced and non-encyclopedic trivia. Brian Kendig (talk) 05:10, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages because they contain similar content:

(O)^(O) Delete. I agree with Nick-D, and this isn't a particularly useful way to sort zipcodes anyways.--CastAStone /^{/₵₳$↑₳}^{₴₮ʘ№€} 06:18, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep the text but delete the tables. - Richard Cavell (talk) 06:46, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all. Rapidly forming consensus seems to agree the table should be deleted per

Delete. Listing zip codes with no indication what area they cover is not helpful. Pages that do cover that are a directory and should be elsewhere on the web, not wikipedia. - Mgm|^(talk) 16:49, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete These articles are basically poorer-quality editions of pages deleted at this deletion discussion a year and a half ago: they're technically not the same, as the pages deleted then were actually better (they listed community names with their codes), but if the better pages could be deleted, surely the worse can.

Delete all Although postal codes are important, these are wrong on several levels. The content is next to useless (i.e., these are the numbers used in Florida: 32003 32004 32007 32008 32009 32011 32013 32024....); and even with more content, there is no reason to sort zip codes by state. There are ample sources besides Wikipedia where useful information about zip codes can be found, and a Wikipedia article can link to such sources.

Delete per all of the above, this isn't what Wikipedia is for. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 15:20, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep at least the content of Southern California ZIP Codes in some form—this one is entirely different from the others, in that it arranges the ZIP codes by county and lists populations, and this article has also been around much longer. The information could be split and merged into the articles on the counties or cities if it is deemed that this is inappropriate as a single list. As for the others, it seems that the text is verifiable and not directory information, and so ought to be kept per Richard Cavell and possibly merged somewhere. Deleting verifiable content without considering other solutions of incorporating the content in an encyclopedic manner is counterproductive and drives away potentially good contributers.

Comment The population numbers in Southern California ZIP Codes have no references. Plus, they are likely to change on a daily basis, and they are useless trivia - does anyone really need to know the population of each individual zip code in Ontario, for example? - Brian Kendig (talk) 01:20, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
