Not notable enough for WP. The article is poorly referenced and liable to going out of date.

- Delete. Only one bluelink, and that golf course is itself of questionable notability. WP:NOTDIR. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 01:37, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep – Per Wikipedia is not a directory, the article is appropriate, as the article has an organized focus and is not, per Wikipedia directory guidelines, like "Lists or repositories of loosely associated topics". The article can also serve to promote the creation of new articles for notable golf courses. Northamerica1000 (talk) 02:07, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – Regarding the nomination for deletion above: No rationale was provided to qualify the statement that the article the author mentioned above, but did not state, the Royale Jakarta Golf Club, is of questionable notability. Without qualification for the statement, there's no basis for it. Northamerica1000 (talk) 02:11, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't know what the notability requirements for golf courses might be, but Royale Jakarta Golf Club certainly doesn't pass the general requirements, with only these passing mentions to show for. Anyway, that's not why we're here: Delete since at best this is a list of one. The topic (Golf courses in Jakarta") might well be notable, but since there aren't any articles, a list thereof is utterly redundant and nothing but an invitation to spam, IMO. I could suggest a redirect to List of golf courses in Jakarta, but that doesn't exist, and Category:Golf clubs and courses in Indonesia only has one member. So, delete. BTW, Northamerica, the nominator's comment was perfectly valid. You may ask for more detail, but they can say that if they want to. Drmies (talk) 02:17, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – To clarify, the article passes all eight points of WP:NOTDIR. Northamerica1000 (talk) 02:33, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – No disrespect intended, but there are other internet sources available to establish notability besides Google News. Northamerica1000 (talk) 02:37, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- No offense taken. I was visiting libraries when we had card catalogs and you had to write down the call number and give it to the librarian. I encourage you to find those non-Google sources (you seem to presume they exist) and add them to the article. Drmies (talk) 03:20, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – Virtually any list article on Wikipedia could be stated as redundant. Redundancy does not reduce notability. Northamerica1000 (talk) 18:57, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete only one course is actually referenced (via blue link to article). with the rest removed, its not a list any more. if someone cares about this, start creating articles on them, and when you are at about half a dozen, go ahead and recreate.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 02:16, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
