List of Registered Historic Places in Coconino County, Arizona (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (restore|cache|AfD)

This list was listed as a PROD on May 11 for the reason of "A list of almost entirely red-links". It was deleted on May 17. I believe that this was a mistake. I quite simply dropped the ball and did not see the PRODing of the article on my watchlist. If I had I would have contested the PRODing. This list was part of a series of lists for properties on the NRHP, divided by state, and in some cases, by county. (See List of National Register of Historic Places entries for the top level list.) This was the only county list that was deleted of all of the county lists for Arizona, which leaves as erious hole in our coverage. It is my belief that any article on any property on NRHP would easily survive AfD. This list, then, is list that is most useful, for the present, as a development list, as per WP:LIST and thus should not have been deleted. An additional note, I screwed up process and undeleted this and brought it to AfD. When it was pointed out that this was the wrong thing to do, I re-deleted it and brought it here.

weak undelete I'm the person who pointed out that he acted in error in using his Admin power to undelete an article that he was personally involved with. (I wouldn't have minded an admin undoing a bad deletion, but the problem was that it was an article he worked on previously.) But I felt the list was worth keeping---just that the AfD process wasn't the proper channel to re-list it.Balloonman 04:07, 20 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
