784:- Mound, Louisiana is a village not a street or road. Settlement acknowledged by U.S. Census Bureau. Walnut Street (Philadelphia) - "another grand street in a major city". A grand street it may be. This one is not. A major city. Dublin is the capital of Ireland but calling it a major city is something else. This is a minor avenue of no real encyclopedic purpose. Do not compare Philadelphia to Dublin. 336:- How is it notable? Is every street in every town, village or city in the world notable because it has buildings on it. Is a street notable because there is a football pitch or a church on it. If that were the case then there would be a large volume of articles created just for that reason. What makes this street more interesting than the rest and makes it more deserving of an article. -- 230:
involved. Personally, though, I think its too stringent by at least a figure of 5, and even more so for for important cities like national capitals--particularly historic ones. The facilities along it indicate its importance as a hub for sports activities. A street is important for what is located there.
479:
I have added a selection of 8 sources covering the geography, history and contemporary interest in this place. It seems to be the most fashionable and sought-after address in all of Ireland and the value of its property can measured in billions. As for the sports grounds, there seem to be several.
229:
From the information given it appears notable, though sourcing should be improved. There are no numerical quotas for articles on a subject, we consider them individually. The cited essay is an essay, giving one person's view. It';s not useless to have it as some indication of the order of magnitude

article is entitled "Light and bright on Park Avenue" and starts "Park Avenue in Sandymount hit the headlines earlier this year." The Irish Times is the premier journal of record in Ireland and here we have it headlining this avenue more than once. So, we have both direct references and numerous

No, we should delete it because Dublin is not and never will be New York. That is a blooming ridiculous comparison. It runs between two areas. The two areas get their own articles. But a road which just runs between and has nothing else important to say for itself? Fair enough if such a road in
188:- Yes, but, take Exampletown for example. Just because Examplestreet in Exampletown has Example Shopping Centre, Example Football Pitch and Example Church...doesit make the street itself notable. Oxford Street is Europe's busiest shopping street, as well as the most dense. -- 606:
explicitly encourages us to develop articles in this way. Moreover, since the address alone is certainly notable, the article title should be retained for search purposes and deletion would therefore be unhelpful to our readers, as compared with merger or redirection.
461:. If there's something documenting a "Church of St John" on this road, it's not in any book, newspaper article, or WWW page that I can find. There are no in-depth sources on this subject to be had. The Primary Notability Criterion is not satisifed. 602:
incidental mentions. And this is just what I have added in some idle moments using the keyhole views afforded by Google. From what I've seen, I would expect to have little difficulty writing a book about this place, should I want to, and our

727:: I notice it is the same editors who want all the streets kept yet cannot give valid arguments and seem to just be in love with keeping each street as it is. That is extreme inclusionism of the type that should be outlawed. -- 789: 867:- Of course it's a vote. You suggested "keep". Was that just inserted by accident or did you mean to type it in. F.Y.I., I know I don't decide what opinion is valid, I was just giving you a bit of advice my dear friend. -- 266:
You know, the guideline does not explain the difference: My own view is that everything important is notable, and a good many things that aren't actually important, but have some significance in the world none the less.

which explains that the concept is based upon whether the subject has been noticed by other writers. Your personal views on the subject's importance, interest or deserving nature are quite irrelevant to this.
494:
I still suggest more needs to be done. More sources (preferrably some genuine online ones too) and the like. Perhaps the best solution would be a list of Park Avenues with a redirect from this page. --

Blacker is actually talking about the Convent of the Immaculate Conception, and like Gifford and Seidman give this road name merely as a street address, without saying anything at all about the road.

Somerville-Large actually says "in the neighbourhood of Sandymount and Park Avenue", and by trying to shoe-horn this into an article about this road you have actually misrepresented the source.
