** '''Comment''' What would criteria for inclusion on this list be? There are probably more closed restaurants then there are towns in the world. Could such a list ever be complete?

Famous closed restaurants
- Famous closed restaurants (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
POV biased original research, only source is a dead link. Misplaced Pages is not a memorial site. - 2 ... says you, says me 04:02, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Delete Agreed, no brainer.Fuzbaby (talk) 04:12, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Delete All other arguments aside, such a list is useless and defining what would be on the list is impossible. Kurt (talk) 04:15, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Strong Keep but Rename as List of closed restaurants; should be Wiki'ed from Category:Lists_of_restaurants. While one hates using WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS, it's hard to see how this is so different from List of casual dining restaurant chains, List of restaurant chains, List of restaurant chains in the United States, List of fast food restaurants, or List of revolving restaurants. Furthermore, simply because something is in the past doesn't make it nonnotable, as can be readily seen by the range of Misplaced Pages articles which begin "List of former..." or "List of closed..." (see here). The article needs work, but the problems it has are surmountable.--AuthorityTam (talk) 04:55, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. JBsupreme (talk) 06:36, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Delete, no sources or references, no definition of what constitutes a "famous" restaurant. Misplaced Pages is not a directory or a memorial site. JIP | Talk 07:02, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. Nothing defines what "famous" is. Of those on the list, the notability for the ones I looked at would be questionable/non-existant anyway so I don't support the rename. Niteshift36 (talk) 08:30, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Lists-related deletion discussions. -- TexasAndroid (talk) 12:15, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Strong Keep but Rename per AuthorityTam and WP:NETPOSITIVE. — Jeff G. (talk|contribs)
- Comment What would criteria for inclusion on this list be? There are probably more closed restaurants then there are towns in the world. Could such a list ever be complete? Also, if there is going to be a notability requirement for the list, why rename as opposed to delete and start fresh? I doubt any of the current list would make it to a list with a notability requirement of any strength. Hipocrite (talk) 14:26, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Comment, The current article is just an opinion piece of what a famous restaraunt is. Except for one, there is no references that any of these restaraunt's existed, were "famous" or are currently closed. The one entry that has a reference is not completely closed. Half of the Bennigan's restaraunts closed when the company went backrupt but the other half are still operating. In its current form, I do not think the article belongs. I could see a list of restaraunts/chains that are notable (my meaning, have an article or are eligible for an article) and are now closed/out of business.
