Untitled
[edit]Borderline. What do people think? I didn't think this was notable enough for an article, so I merged and redirected it to University of California, Berkeley. It was summarily bounced back by User:Jiang with the edit comment "(Housing - rm section; single co-op does not deserve special mention; maybe deserve article since on natl register of historic places?)" But this is not an article about a building, it is an article about a housing unit and its role in the culture of a university. If it's not worth mentioning in the article about the university, is it worth its own article? Remove the university-related material and you have a substub about a borderline-notable building. Dpbsmith (talk) 16:08, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC) P. S. Do take a peek at the Original version.
Delete. I think the original red and blue links must spell something in Morse code, but I'm too apathetic to find out. Noisy | Talk 17:12, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC) Change to neutral, having read the link from Jiang. I think that there could be the basis for an article, here. Noisy | Talk 18:56, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)- Delete; either that or I'll put up an article on how I pay my mortgage and (very occasionally) clean house. — Bill 17:45, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Delete: Not sufficiently notable. The housing arrangement and building are both of insufficient note Gurdonark 17:57, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Comment: #92001718 on the National Register of Historic Places. Info on its history can be found here. Other buildings have articles, eg, Cory Hall. If this is to be kept, the university-related material is relevant but it needs text on what it was before it became a co-op. --Jiang 18:19, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Comment. Note: this is not an argument for deletion. But it does bear on the question of the degree of notability conferred by being listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The total number of listings is about 78,000; see National Register of Historic Places Searches are available here: http://www.nr.nps.gov/nrloc1.htm I searched on Berkeley, CA. Cloyne Court Hotel is indeed listed, dated 1992-12-24. The total number of listings in Berkeley, CA is 56. Dpbsmith (talk) 23:49, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Neutral: I suspect that there is potential to write a worthwhile article about this building, but this is not yet it. -- Jmabel | Talk 03:10, Oct 30, 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. Not notable. The National Register is too broad for our usage. --Improv 13:35, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Keep and expand, there's probably room for a article here with a different focus. --Goobergunch 21:24, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Seems like there is potential, keep —siroχo 08:36, Oct 31, 2004 (UTC)
- National Register is reason enough to keep it, if someone could please add that to the article ... - David Gerard 12:25, 31 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. Expand. On the National Register of Historic Places, therefore notable. Stub is decent. — Gwalla | Talk 23:34, 31 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. Expand a bit. This is a notable building by a distinguished architect (as UC's primary architect, Howard is at least regionally famous) on the National Register. It has also played, in its current role as a student co-op, a social role in the university community. --Calton 08:07, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. What is gained by omitting this article? Lack of notability is not enough; if the subject is even slightly notable and the accuracy is not in dispute I don't see why it should be deleted. Plus, it makes the UC Berkeley page lopsided to merge this in there. ~leif ☺ HELO 10:41, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)

New Discussion Section
[edit]Good grief, it looks like I'll have to take a stab at rewriting this -- I recognized the source of information for most of that history article linked above: me. I was the editor of the house newsletter that published the original article back in 1984.
Trust, there's enough meat for at least a short entry, once I get around to digging up my material from 1984. --Calton 05:09, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Syphillis?
[edit]I removed this sentence added by 66.159.224.70:
- Cloyne Court had one of the highest syphillis infection rates in the country until its residents were put on mandatory antibiotics.
It has no source and no timeframe. It should not be put back without more context. Mike Dillon 04:52, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
Bias?!
[edit]In fact, the actions of the authorities themselves that night were highly responsible for inciting mass hysteria, and "feelings of doom."
That's just a wee bit biased, no? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Acc78 (talk • contribs) 22:37, 5 June 2007

Pot cookie scare section?
[edit]Why was the section about the pot cookie incident removed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.123.162.2 (talk) 00:35, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
- Because this is an encyclopedia, not a gossip column. Argyriou (talk) 07:16, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
- Agree with this sentiment. The merits or demerits of it's inhabitants aren't an area for notable discussion seeing as the article concerns the historicity of the building. Just undid an attempt to put back this note on the pot cookie scare. Maximilianklein (talk) 09:14, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
