The result was keep. The article needs expanding (including some of the references provided by Phil Bridger), but the 'keep's provide enough justification for this article to remain -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 08:00, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Even under plain old "Steeplechasing Hall of Fame", I didn't find anything. "This is a stub" only works for inherently notable topics, and halls of fame aren't inherently notable. Mandsford (talk) 14:14, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep/merge Real location, mention in an encyclopedia of horse racing. Needs more sources and text though. Should probably be merged as a sub section of the racecourse article if nobody can expand it. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 17:49, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Keep - With a little work I was able to find another mention reference and even a WP article of a member of the Hall, with two references to that. It appears to be a real place and, while poorly documented on line, certainly should have the stature for an expanded article if when what will apparently be print documentation of its membership is added.Trackinfo (talk) 18:02, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I don't think its any surprise that you found a Wikipedia article for one of the hall's members, as their standards are far more exacting than our notability guidelines. As of 2006/7 the hall had only sixteen human and five equine members. Phil Bridger (talk) 16:25, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per [2],[3],[4], etc., etc.. Phil Bridger (talk) 16:11, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
