Wikipedia is not the Yellow Pages. All of the listed restaurants are redlinks, and there's not even a Turkish restaurants article to redirect to. User:力 (power~enwiki, π, ν) 23:21, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Then why not just reform or redo the Article? So you can just do the Famous ones. Dunutubble (talk) 00:54, 28 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. "Famous" is not a well-established concept. We do have "notability", and that is a reasonable standard of WP:LISTCRITERIA. That means we strip it down to bluelinks. Only two of the entries are bluelinked, and one I tagged for speedy, so we don't have enough to merit a list. An alternative criterion is that the topic itself is notable. We don't have any refs that support the topic of "Turkish restaurants" as itself a notable concept. DMacks (talk) 01:44, 28 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Obvious violation of WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Ajf773 (talk) 02:48, 28 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete The user was banned for spamming. If there were enough Wikipedia articles for Turkish restaurants to warrant a list article, then it'd be justified, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Dream Focus 00:06, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Nothing useful about this list. Rickshaw Takahashi (talk) 05:18, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete There is nothing wrong in having such a list, provided notability has been demonstrated in each individual case, but that is not the case here. Kerberous (talk) 13:07, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, now that it consists only of "articled" entries. Clarityfiend (talk) 22:17, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
