Nebraska Avenue (Washington, D.C.)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This street is not notable. The article lacks sources. Has been tagged as not-notable and unsourced for over two years without progress. —D. Monack ^talk 16:41, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Street has several landmarks on it and is major in the Washington area. There is no harm this article is doing at all. Nate • (chatter) 05:54, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The street may contain landmarks, but that doesn't make it notable as a street. Nothing in the article indicates historic or other importance of the street itself; could be kept if such material were found and added. I notice that a number of Washington DC streets have articles, mostly the historic diagonal streets, and seem to deserve them. But where I come from, a street like Rhode Island Avenue (Washington, D.C.) would get merged into U.S. Route 1 - and Southern Avenue (Washington, D.C.) and Western Avenue (Washington, D.C.) would get deleted. In fact I think I'll prod them. --MelanieN (talk) 03:05, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The landmarks don't make the street itself notable, and there appears to be nothing else notable about this street; it's not even all that long for a city street. No significant coverage to be found beyond addresses. TheCatalyst31 ^{Reaction•Creation} 00:17, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
