- Delete. I'm not certain of the precedents for individual streets but this one has no notability outside a very small area and thus, I suggest, can't meet whatever standard is imposed. The single reference adds no notability to the street, just the problems of its surrounding urban area. Accounting4Taste 21:52, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- As much as I enjoy your input, this page is a work in progress on one of the fastest growing and cosmopolitan areas of Colchester. I ensure you that your comments have been noted and that by the end of the week this page will satisfy those queries. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hakewillway (talk • contribs) 22:35, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. I was sufficiently curious to go looking for the Wikipedia standard of notability to be applied to a street and found this essay, by which standard I doubt that Hakewill Way qualifies. I don't know what the largest street in Colchester is, but I'm betting this isn't it. According to Wikipedia itself, Colchester has a population just over 100,000, which suggests that two of its streets might -- might -- be notable, but almost certainly not this residential one with a single non-notable reference.
