Museum/Legends (history - links - logs - delete - protect)

I believe this is a dictionary article, nothing described is any different to real-world museums.

  1. Per nom. No information unique to Star Wars. In response to EJ below, restaurant ought to be deleted as well for the same reason, and the rest have information unique to Star Wars. —MJ— Holocomm 21:52, January 29, 2015 (UTC)
    • Out of curiosity, what information does soldier have that is unique to Star Wars? From what I see in that article, the museum article could qualify if a museum existed that was for something that doesn't exist in the real world.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 22:36, January 29, 2015 (UTC)
      • I was slightly rushed when I posted that and didn't look close enough. The soldier article indeed has nothing unique and ought to be deleted as well. And as for the swing in votes to the "keep" side, my vote is staying put. —MJ— Training Room 03:05, January 30, 2015 (UTC)
  2. A museum itself is not unique to the GFFA in any way, while the numerous different museums that are in the galaxy are. Trip391 (talk) 03:27, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

Keep

  1. If a topic only has a few mentions without description, I can buy the "we are not a dictionary" argument, but this article has significant appearances/mentions. If we are going to delete this, there are hundreds of other articles that do not vary that much from a real-world definition. Examples include articles like boot, music, restaurant, soldier, and star.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 17:39, January 29, 2015 (UTC)

  5. Keep. The only problem I see here is that there's a general lack of information. I'm sure there's plenty of good information that could be added to the article. I think I might add some myself a bit later tonight. ProfessorTofty (talk) 22:59, January 29, 2015 (UTC)
