Kensington Town Hall[edit]

No information about where it is, either (the only places listed as having both Kensington and Flemington are Pennsylvania and New South Wales, but that was after a search - there's no info here about it). So ambiguous and non-notable as to almost warrant a speedy. Grutness|^hello? 07:05, 2 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I corrected the links and added the dates during which it was a town hall. It perhaps has an intersting past which needs input from someone in Victoria--Rjstott 07:28, 2 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Better, though I'm still not totally convinced. Perhaps I should list Kensington, Victoria at Kensington_(disambiguation), since it's not listed there... Grutness|^hello? 07:48, 2 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It might merit an article if it was architecturally or historically important, but if it is the article gives us no clue about it. A decent article would also need a photo. Unless the author is willing to expand it, it should be deleted. Adam 10:05, 2 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. The most notable Kensington Town Hall is in London. I don't know whether it might be notable enough and I doubt very much on the evidence before us that the Melbourne one is. Capitalistroadster 11:32, 2 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, even as a Melburnian, I've never heard of this. After a brief period as a town hall (for a now defunct town) it's just a private building. Compare Brunswick Town Hall. --bainer 13:38, 2 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
If it is a private building of no architectural or public significance, delete. Private buildings, unless significant, should not have articles lest they be blatant advertisements for the private owners and/or occupiers. There does, however, seem soom potential in this article.--Cyberjunkie 14:13, 2 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -- possibly merge anything useful into Kensington, Victoria. - Longhair | Talk 02:17, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Keep/Merge. Its historical importance is its use as a town hall. It remains to be seen what other interesting information might appear. Until an author or authors are willing to expand it, it should be merged into an appropriate Melbourne article. Dystopos 02:34, 6 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
