I feel that this page should be deleted because the name of it appears to be incomplete (there's clearly some text before the first letter that is cut off) and even the letters we can make out are unclear, we don't know for sure that the first three letters are "CAU".

'''Notability'''
 
Do these really need to have their own articles, and do they meet the notability standards? It seems to me that we could include the essays on the episode's Quotes page, which needs a makeover anyway. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 13:56, 17 May 2013 (EDT)
 
:Yeah, I don't think these really need their own articles. They would be perfectly fine being on the quotes page. --[[User:Nick97|'''<font color=darkorange>Nick97</font>''']] <sup>([[User talk:Nick97|<font color=peach>'''talk'''</font>]] ~ [[Special:Contributions/Nick97|<font color=turquoise>'''contribs'''</font>]])</sup>  18:34, 17 May 2013 (EDT)
 
::I did a little more thinking about it, and I'm going to poke a hole in my own argument: I didn't get the same "not notable enough" vibe from Lisa's poem ''[[Meditations on Turning Eight]]'', and I was trying to figure out why. Then I realized that it was because the poem was coming off like a song, and songs do meet our notability guidelines even if they're one-off items delivered in a practically throwaway fashion. By that reasoning, the essay articles SHOULD stay, since we have articles for songs that got a lot less air time than the essays. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 19:15, 17 May 2013 (EDT)

Pages for deletion (PfD) is where editors discuss whether a page should be deleted. Articles listed are normally discussed for at least five days after which the deletion process proceeds based on community consensus. Then the page may be kept, merged or redirected, moved to another title or deleted.

Creating an PfD discussion[edit]

If you want to create a deletion discussion simply list in the nominations section:

Also do not forget to mark the page to be deleted with {{Delete}} on the top.

Nominations[edit]

Cauldron (location)[edit]

I feel that this page should be deleted because the name of it appears to be incomplete (there's clearly some text before the first letter that is cut off) and even the letters we can make out are unclear, we don't know for sure that the first three letters are "CAU". Therefore, I feel that since we can't be sure on the name of this, the page should be deleted. The Solar Dragon 14:27, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Agree. Couldn't find any real record store in which the name "Cauldron" could be based on. --Simpsons88 (Talk ☎️) 15:00, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Eats[edit]

Name is generic so against notability policy. The Solar Dragon 18:02, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Itchy Lot, Scratchy Lot, and Stationnement Itchy[edit]

These are just parking lots for the theme parks, I don't feel that they need articles to themselves, especially when so little can be said for them. The Solar Dragon 20:01, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Itchy & Scratchy Land Cutlery[edit]

Actual name of the shop is just "Cutlery", so against notability policy. The Solar Dragon 20:07, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Itchy & Scratchy Land Candy and Itchy & Scratchy Land Toys[edit]

Same reason as Cutlery above. The Solar Dragon 09:04, May 11, 2026 (EDT)
