The result was merge to List of Atlantic City casinos that never opened. It's rare that we have a merge target in an AfD that's this much on point. Sandstein 12:14, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:CRYSTAL. This Hard Rock property never made it out of the planning stages. Also very little media coverage to bring notability. YborCityJohn (talk) 06:56, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There is nothing WP:CRYSTAL here. This is a notable project that never got off the ground but is covered by ample reliable and verifiable sources to establish notability. Alansohn (talk) 13:27, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
delete This is routine coverage of a failed project, at least what we're seeing here. Development projects are proposed all the time, and a lot of them go through, and some of them don't, and until there's more than the kind of coverage pretty much any project gets, I'm going to say "not notable", especially for the failures.

Merge to List of Atlantic City casinos that never opened. This article could be trimmed to about two paragraphs to cover just the important facts, and is unlikely to ever need to grow longer to justify a standalone article. Toohool (talk) 20:35, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge, per User:Toohool's excellent suggestion. Merging to a suitable list-article, even creating the list-article if necessary, should be done more often in AFDs. Here, the list-article exists and is spot-on relevant. --do ncr am 00:08, 29 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
