Talk:San Diego/Sorrento Valley

San Diego/Sorrento Valley
I don't know how this happened, but our coverage on San Diego is a disaster. There are far too many district articles that are almost completely irrelevant. I'm trying to restructure the coverage, so this may not be the only time you see me here with a San Diego article.

Anyway, Sorrento Valley is a suburban neighborhood located in north San Diego, and is the home of a number of corporate headquarters and "tech parks", but little else. There's nothing to do, few (if any) places to eat, and only a few motels, which could easily go into the Del Mar article, as it is practically next door (which I've already done with the one hotel listing in this article).

 * Keep. I think.  Could you point me towards your overall plan for San Diego?  Maybe that will change my mind.  The current structure was created based on a list of neighborhoods from the city's web site.  I agree that it's a disaster, but I don't think that subsuming part of San Diego into different municipality (Del Mar) is the solution.  I can try to add some dining locations (which I've eaten at) when I stay at that hotel in a couple of weeks.  I'd rather see Sorrento Valley subsumed into a larger north San Diego neighborhood, but I don't know San Diego well enough to restructure things.  --(WT-en) Jonboy 17:04, 11 October 2007 (EDT)


 * Basically, my plan was to run down the list of neighborhoods, keep those that have sufficient places to see, eat, sleep, etc, and get rid of the rest. But for these cases where there doesn't seem to be a whole lot in each neighborhood, I am totally willing to go for more regional articles, like "Northeastern San Diego".

 * This has been up for VFD for a long time, and it's time to get it resolved. A redirect to somewhere in the new SD hierarchy seems right to me, but I'd prefer it be done by someone who knows the city better than I do. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 11:51, 6 December 2007 (EST)
 * If we create a "Northeastern San Diego" article, we can redirect Sorrento Valley into that. (WT-en) PerryPlanet 13:20, 6 December 2007 (EST)


 * Keep/redirect. I'm all for large districts to encompass many smaller neighborhoods of relatively low travel importance. So a merge & redirect to Northeastern San Diego makes sense to me, when its created. Until the hierarchy is sorted out and such an article is created, I think it's fair to just link this article from the talk page and keep for now. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 01:07, 10 December 2007 (EST)

So it was kept, but "without prejudice"; this should be revisited if/when the San Diego district structure matures. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 12:51, 11 December 2007 (EST)
