Delete: Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. This place does not yet exist, and as such is inherently unencyclopedic. See Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_crystal_ball --Durin 04:10, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, not notable (yet). Megan1967 06:49, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. It's encyclopedic in that "planning or preparation for the event is already in progress" [1]. Meanwhile I'm working hard to be included. Eixo 08:25, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: Not notable until it exists, and no article can be written until there is something to actually describe and discuss. Until then, all that exists is an announcement, and Wikipedia is not a noticeboard. Geogre 11:12, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as stub. Needs photos, references, and a bit of an article. It is encyclopaedic and will be built. Perhaps reword as planned Beer Hall of Fame? Internodeuser 13:14, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Photos? Photos of what? It doesn't exist yet. There's nothing to photograph. It is not slated to open until September, 2006. Please see above link regarding Wikipedia not being a crystal ball. I agree this seems like a good article to have, but the reality is it does not yet exist and as such is not encyclopedic. --Durin 19:33, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• Send planning committee to my house, then delete or userfy until article's subject has actual existence. Barno 22:37, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. If it actually existed it would probably be encyclopedic. However, the mere fact that someone is planning a "Beer Hall of Fame" is not encyclopedic (even if it will include a "micrbrewery") Jacob1207 23:12, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I say keep. Looks like something in the works. There are plans for the new world trade center - even links for people to be influenced and educated. the topic may seem trivial, but if its really underway, it merits an entry. Barrettmagic

• Keep, per Internodeuse, appears to be verifiable and notable. Kappa 06:10, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per crystal ball. Radiant_* 08:47, May 25, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Not a crystal ball, uninformative stub, yadada. --Calton | Talk 13:05, 26 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep you don't need a crystal ball to verify this information. Grue 12:15, 27 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
