Is this notable? [[User:Neutrality|Neutrality (hopefully!)]] 21:23, Nov 12, 2004 (UTC)

Yep, it's notable. It's an open-air market with 19th C origins, with some interesting history that I bet some local will be happy to expand upon here. Keep. --jpgordon{gab} 21:41, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)
No it isn't. It's not exactly Portobello Road or Brick Lane, it's a tiny street in Canning Town. The fact that it goes back to the 19th century is neither here nor there. The buildings down the road from me were built in the early 19th century and I don't see anyone adding them here. Dbiv 21:47, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Weak keep, after a quick glance at jpgordon's link. The article needs fixing though. —siro χ o 22:44, Nov 12, 2004 (UTC)
Keep This market is famous and notable. It is also nowhere near Canning Town. Mrsteviec 22:55, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Keep it. [[User:Radman1|RaD Man (talk)]] 23:07, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Keep. Notable flower market. (It's not the "Columbia Road" in Canning Town - there are two of them.) Timberline 23:53, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Keep. Add stub message, add 19th C origins. Don't delete. zoney ♣ talk 23:15, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Keep, seems to be significant. Alphax (talk) 05:05, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)
