The result was keep, non-admin closure. Kakofonous (talk) 07:03, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Not much more than a dictionary definition, with information like the entire second paragraph
Usually, the facility provides furniture, overhead projectors, stage lighting, and sound system by the provider. It is arranged for payment by the host. The number of people attending can vary from a few to some thousand.
that cannot really be sourced, as it is making such broad claims. Other articles on rooms, like bedroom, are much more encyclopedic and contain information that broadens the article's scope from just a definition, but not this one. Kakofonous (talk) 02:10, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak delete. I have no doubt whatsoever that conference rooms are quite prevalent; however, I'm not too sure that this page could ever be more than just a dicdef laced with similar broad claims.

- Keep - actually a perfectly encyclopedic concept. OK needs sourcing but a G search shows many available. There are plenty orf notable ones and articles as to how to set one up. Tag for expansion instead. Bridgeplayer (talk) 19:19, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm curious (because I would definitely take on the expansion task if sources were located), what sites have you found that offer comprehensive info on the idea of a conference hall as a room in itself, rather than a notable conference hall which might have enough notability for a separate article?

- OK, I have expanded it a bit and added some sources so it is now better sourced than your bedroom example :-) The page used to source the facilities is a local government owned hall to avoid it being too commercially spammy! Bridgeplayer (talk) 01:38, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Great work! I wholeheartedly change my !vote to keep. Cheers, Kakofonous (talk) 06:17, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - Even as a dicdef (which it isn't anymore, nice work) this is the kind of article we need as an encyclopedia (or whatever we are). dihydrogen monoxide (H20) 06:59, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
