Talk:Downtown

Think this needs to move to Pittsburgh/Downtown... same with some of the other Pittsburgh links..

Contece has been moved to Pittsburg/Downtown where it belongs to. --(WT-en) Hansm 17:58, 2004 Apr 26 (EDT)

Uh thanks, but just FYI it's easier to move a page than to move the content to a new page and then delete the old one... but it all works out in the end ;-). (WT-en) Majnoona 20:54, 26 Apr 2004 (EDT)

>;-P I see. realy much easier and more reliable. Thanks for the hint, May. --(WT-en) Hansm 06:27, 2004 Apr 27 (EDT)

VFD discussion

Downtown

A vfd for Chinatown was rejected some years back, I think correctly; see Talk:Chinatown.

Part of the discussion there included, from two then-regular contributors:

I can't believe Wikivoyage has a Downtown disambiguation. A little embarrassing...

I agree. The downtown article is definitely useless, and verging on plain silly.

I agree as well. this article is silly & useless; it should be deleted. Pashley (talk) 05:21, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

• Delete - per Pashley as well as it's quite embarrassing. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | en.wikipedia) 06:12, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

• Delete. Attempting to disambiguate "Downtown" is insane! -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:58, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

• Delete per IK. –LPfi (talk) 07:44, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

• Delete - "Downtown" can refer to a gazillion different places. BTW Special:WhatLinksHere/Downtown reveals it has been vfd'd and deleted in October 2009 but somebody has recreated it. --Ypsilon (talk) 08:53, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

Chuckle. Looking at your link I find I voted delete in 2009. I'll do that again now. Pashley (talk) 09:12, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

• Delete. Far too many to comprehensively disambiguate. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 14:05, 17 June 2021 (UTC)
• Delete Even the smallest of towns like Franklin (Venango County) have "Downtowns". If it's only meant to list Wikivoyage article's with /Downtown then it's completely arbitrary. Either way, it's not useful. ChubbyWimbus (talk) 12:46, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Agreed. I take it there is no appropriate redirect target for "downtown" or "uptown" for travel topic information? I'm not aware of one, but this website has many pages I don't know. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 18:35, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

• Delete per nomination. Ground Zero (talk) 00:50, 26 June 2021 (UTC)

Outcome: deleted. Pashley (talk) 00:10, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
