Pizza delivery

• Keep. I'm a little offended that you guys fail to see the "art" inherent in Pizza Delivery, but I am excited that my entry has grown into a respectable article now. However, I must remind Cyrius... never slap the pizza driver, he knows where you live.

I'm sure there's a lot to say on the subject, but this doesn't provide any useful information, so delete. Mgm|^(talk) 09:02, Mar 30, 2005 (UTC)

Now that the article is expanded and the needless referring to delivery as an art is removed, I see no more reason to delete this. I vote Keep and withdraw my nomination. Mgm|^(talk) 08:09, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, an article could probably be written, but the current one has zero information content. Keep now Thue | talk 10:08, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, encyclopedic topic, has potential. Kappa 10:14, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect. The topic might be better suited as a section in something like Home delivery, than in its own article.--Matteh (talk) 10:30, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. It's only been up a few hours. It's a sub-stub now, but I can easily see it becoming an encyclopaedic article (albeit one that wouldn't interest me personally!). (Oh, I made some suggestions for expansion on its talk page.) --Securiger 10:56, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep for now. While I believe in deleting unexpanded substubs, there needs to be the opportunity for growth first. Also, smack Chris Horvath around for posting something with no links and no formatting. -- Cyrius|✎ 12:56, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep -- Glen Finney 14:27, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with Pizza, subject is already better covered there. Radiant_* 14:38, Mar 30, 2005 (UTC)
• Agreed. Merge/redirect to Pizza, even though Pizza links to Pizza delivery. — RJH 17:13, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Some aspects of 'pizza delivery' (a service) deserve unique treatment apart from pizza (a food product)... like the not infrequent use of pizza delivery as a prank, or as a plot device in porno movies. -- 8^D ^gab 18:02, 2005 Mar 30 (UTC)
• Keep and allow for organic growth. --"GRider"\^talk 18:24, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and tag for cleanup and/or expansion--pizza delivery is a phenomenon separate from the food itself, and deserving of its own article. Meelar (talk) 20:12, Mar 30, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. The subject of "pizza delivery" is different from pizza can be expanded with significant historic and cultural information. Zzyzx11 21:59, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Some info is useful, and it should be allowed to grow. --Plainsong 23:58, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Comment I have now expanded this article somewhat - it is certainly much closer to encyclopaedic. -- 8^D ^gab 01:05, 2005 Mar 31 (UTC)
• Keep; looking good now. Antandrus 01:35, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Pizza. The topic would be better suited there rather than as an article on its own. Megan1967 02:32, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with Pizza. Looks like some thought has gone into the article - but it's not strong enough to stand by itself. -Zaphod Beeblebrox 11:30, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - good article now. Well done BD2412. Capitalistroadster 12:30, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Collective effort, actually - as the history shows, a lot of people pitched in overnight (or throughout the day if you live on the other side of the world from me). -- 8^D ^gab 12:47, 2005 Mar 31 (UTC)
• Keep the current article. --SPUI (talk) 13:22, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Good expansion! N-Man 13:35, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, and list on WP:UA for its pathological detail into something which for most people is fairly mundane. Chris 21:12, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Comment: kudos to everyone who worked on this article; it's quite good now. I second the WP:UA suggestion. Antandrus 23:19, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. ~leif ☺ _HELO 04:39, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)
