Keep -- There is nothing wronmg with the category name. "Shopping mall" is an Americanism, which please do not try to impose on the rest of the world. For example, Oxford Street, London is a vibrant shopping street. Property along it is in many differnet ownerships: it is not a mall, excpet possibly to ignoratn yankee visitors.

Comment There are shopping districts and streets in the US. I tire of the constant attacks on Americans as "ignorant" carried out by some editors, especially when they often seek to impose a de fact expectation that British usage is the default usage.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:23, 3 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I went through Category:Retailing in Bangkok moving companies to the company category and placing what remains in sub categories. So now that we can see what is left, I'll ask why do we need to keep the categories as they are currently named since they don't really address the topic of retailing? Retailing is a vague concept that, as mentioned in the nomination is intended to include concepts and venues in the category. I suspect that most of the content is venues as this one example showed.

Per WP:CAT#Articles, "a defining characteristic is one that reliable sources commonly and consistently define the subject as having". John Cleese, for example, is not commonly and consistently defined as someone who was expelled from school. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me09:48, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
