This article purports to be about a known community within Philadelphia called the "Schuykill Avenue Community", but the sources do not bear out that such a neighborhood is known. To be sure, Schuykill Avenue exists, and apparently, a local hospital is expanding to occupy a facility on that street, but that does not make for a named community or neighborhood. Other than the local hospital expansion, this does not appear to be a notable place. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:17, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Schuylkill, Philadelphia - the area is quite notable as the Philadelphia Inquirer and other local sources are talking about this area. It is currently known as Devil's Pocket, but the plans do not reference that name. The Philadelphia Inquirer refers to the area as the "Lower Schuylkill", so it is notable. Perhaps merge into Devil's Pocket or Schuylkill Banks (Trail) - which I think is currently pointed to Fairmont Park (don't merge there though). It also cannot be part of Naval Square because Naval Square is a gated community even though Schuylkill Avenue is on its border - the entrance is at Grays Ferry Avenue.

On second thought, I found this other article... it probably should merge with Schuylkill, Philadelphia. --4t4grfgz (talk) 19:15, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- If no one objects, I will merge everything to Schuylkill, Philadelphia. Feel free to revert if there is any further discussion required. Thanks.--4t4grfgz (talk) 02:53, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I object, and have reverted. This type of action should not be taken while there is an open ongoing AFD. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 10:32, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep/merge This is a major road in Philly - and has one of the bridges across the Schuylkill river. As we have plenty of related articles about this area of this major city, it makes no sense to make this a red link. Warden (talk) 07:21, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd go along with a merge. Bearian (talk) 19:34, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
