Barely a stub, and do we want an article about each of the hundreds of area codes? RickK 19:10, Jul 5, 2004 (UTC)
- Sure, why not? Keep as stub. anthony (see warning)
- Surely not. Dunc_Harris|☺ 19:28, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Comment: Have a look at List of North American area codes. There appears to be an intention to create an article for every code, and several Wikipedians appear to support it. There are only a few as yet, but not all are quite this stublike, see North American area code 905, Area code 613 or Area code 716. Andrewa 20:56, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Keep, but relocate it and the others to North American area code xxx. –Hajor
- I live in the 760 area code. It's a spinoff of both the 714 and 619 area codes and is the largest in California, stretching along the eastern half of the state from just above San Diego to well past the Sierra Nevadas. Now...does anyone really care? Besides Anthony, that is. :^) Move to the list of area codes. - Lucky 6.9 21:17, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Great idea, move it and wait in anticipation for a few created by myself! And then I'll create an article for all the exchanges in my area code and list every phone number in each exchange. That'd sort of be like my threatened Syracuse to Washington, DC flights article! No, but seriously, area codes is a good idea. Just move it to the normed format. newkai 22:18, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Keep, though I also support the idea of moving to North American Area Code XXX -- Graham ☺ | Talk 23:54, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Agree with Graham, esp. since some area codes (e.g. 202, 212, etc.) are legitimately famous. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 23:58, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Delete: not notable, subject to change. Only a few area codes are notable, we don't need articles for the rest. Wile E. Heresiarch 00:15, 6 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Keep, as this can be easily checked, and information in these is often hard to find in one unified source. Burgundavia 00:41, Jul 6, 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. Trivia that is subject to change and is easily available in other places where it is professionally maintained. (I personally downloaded a similar list as a Palm app.) Content is adequately covered in the main article List of North American area codes. Rossami 04:03, 6 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. Why do we need articles on area codes with no particular significance? This seems to fall under my "that's why the rest of the internet exists" criterion. We don't need to mirror every bit of information in existance, especially if it's easilly available elsewhere, which area codes are. Isomorphic 07:04, 6 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Delete - Quickly before it spawns Area codes that begin with "2" - Tεxτurε 17:24, 6 Jul 2004 (UTC)
