merge from Badin Hall (University of Notre Dame) edit

There is discussion at Talk:Badin Hall (University of Notre Dame).  There is also discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2014 February 19Unscintillating (talk) 22:29, 23 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

  • We have consistently held that individual residence halls on a university campus have a rather high bar to notability. Merely having had residents who became notable is not enough--living in a place for a year or two is not a substantial connection. Local incidents that make the college paper are not enough either. Being part of a campus that as a campus is a historical region listed on the National Register is not enough to make the individual building significant. What is enough? Being a building listed individually on the National register is enough as for any other building; being an important work of a famous architect with substantial comment about it in professional journals is enough, as for any artistic work; being the site of multiple events of more than local significance that have permanent interest is enough as for any topic. Otherwise, all colleges have web sites, and that's the place for the details. DGG ( talk ) 23:16, 25 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Improvement edit

Since the residence halls at Notre Dame are unique and have a particular tradition to them, yet some of them are not considered notable in themselves, I have created a page where they are all merged, as it has been done for Badin Hall by User:Unscintillating. Here is the page: User:Eccekevin/Residence Halls of The University of Notre Dame. There are many primary and secondary sources, but it can use improvement. As soon as it is ready, I propose it substitutes this page, so it preserves all the notable information on the single halls without creating 29 single pages.Eccekevin (talk) 00:41, 16 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Page move from Notre Dame residence halls to University of Notre Dame residence halls edit

For future reference - per the discussion in an articles for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Notre Dame residence halls I requested this article be moved from Notre Dame residence halls to University of Notre Dame residence halls per WP:UNIGUIDE style guide to clarify that it is the university residence halls. This title change was in reference to the fact that there are many institutions named Notre Dame and this provides the reader a better understanding of which the primary noun is about. There is also a disambiguation page at Notre Dame right now which further reinforced this point. This is a non-controversial move. Randomeditor1000 (talk) 19:35, 18 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
