Hong Kong Trade Centre

Non-notable building: Fails GNG, no widespread coverage in reliable sources. Not to be confused with the World Trade Centre (Hong Kong). ► Philg88 ◄ ^♦talk 06:16, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. This building, built in 1982, is on a major thoroughfare, Des Voeux Road, in Central Hong Kong, but is no different from many buildings there. It has not received specific, detailed coverage in independent reliable sources, although the information provided is certainly verifiable. The lack of citations is understandable, most of the mentions were in Chinese, but not significant. --Bejnar (talk) 17:00, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per nomination. I've been there, it just a small shopping mall with offices above. I couldn't find any sources to establish notability so it should go. Rincewind42 (talk) 03:33, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Just another ~~nondescript~~ office building. -Zanhe (talk) 16:35, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Although I agree with @Zanhe:'s suggestion that the article be deleted, the building is not nondescript. See, e.g., Hong Kong Trade Centre. Here is an excellent image. Compare with File:HK Des Voeux Road Central 161 Hong Kong Trade Centre POSH Office Furniture Shop.JPG. Because of its distinctive architecture, the building can frequently be picked out from quite far away. It just has not had significant coverage. --Bejnar (talk) 18:00, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the correction! I've stricken out "nondescript". My original vote still stands. -Zanhe (talk) 20:10, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
