fails WP:ORG. hospitals are not inherently notable. the coverage is rather routine and local for Sheffield. let's see if the usual suspect turns up to this AfD. LibStar (talk) 02:19, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

• delete fails GNG. a directory entry. Jytdog (talk) 02:38, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
• Keep. There are very few specialist dental hospitals in the UK. This is one of the best-known and the teaching hospital for a notable university dentistry department. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:20, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

please provide actual evidence of being "best known ". LibStar (talk) 10:46, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

• Ideally keep but at least merge/redirect. There seems to be quite a lot of coverage in old books judging by GBooks but without available access. Even if the hospital itself is potentially not notable, it's part of notable entities, such as Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and University of Sheffield, two possible targets for redirecting/merging. Per WP:ATD there is certainly no reason to delete this page completely. Regards SoWhy 10:40, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

Providing the search results of searching google books is not a valid AfD argument. Those could be all passing mentions. There needs to be multiple sources with signfiicant discussion of the subject, so that we can have an actual WP article and not a directory entry. See WP:NOT. Jytdog (talk) 13:15, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

I am well aware of the policy, thank you very much. That's why I wrote "ideally", hoping that someone with more access to such books can find the required coverage. However, I think we can both agree that per WP:ATD-R deletion is not a valid outcome if the article title would make a useful redirect, can we not? Regards SoWhy 13:53, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

• Redirect - Either target would suffice, but I think University of Sheffield is slightly more appropriate. That way, the history is kept if someone wants to develop the article further. Clearly, as it stands it does not appear to meet notability criteria. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:10, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
• Redirect to University of Sheffield. Insufficient sources for notability.  Sandstein  13:59, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
