Official website[edit]

The link to the official website for Dubai Marina doesn't work. I've tried it from a variety of different browsers but it all says that the browser can't open the page. It has something to do with the page that it tries to open, however. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.122.185.241 (talk) 04:24, 13 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page[edit]

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

http://www.designbuild-network.com/projects/dubai-marina/
Triggered by \bdesignbuild-network\.com\b on the local blacklist

From your friendly hard working bot.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 11:05, 3 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 20:30, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge of Dubai Marina Mall into Dubai Marina[edit]

No consensus to merge. — JFG ^talk 17:42, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Article has no content not already on main article. None of the sources are substantive coverage of the mall itself rather than the Marina. Reywas92^Talk 08:41, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Don't merge. This merge discussion comes directly after a sudden redirect 12/6/2019 from Reywas92 without any discussion. The mall is one of the main shopping centers in the emirate of Dubai. The article Dubai Marina Mall is well sourced with additional photographs: it serves our readers to have a well designed separate article. Lightburst (talk) 14:32, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- It serves readers well to have a page with zero information that isn't already at Dubai Marina? Weird. Can you specify which of these sources (a) is unable to be provided to the reader in the main article or (b) is actually dedicated to the mall rather than the Marina? Is there a reason this one additional photo can't go at Dubai_Marina#Gallery? Reywas92^Talk 20:27, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to oppose the merging of these two articles as they both talk about different subjects. Dubai marina mall is a big mall that deserves it own article. Best. Atomsedits (talk) 21:00, 29 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support target article can take it. this article would benefit,tooDjflem (talk) 22:04, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose the article on the mall is needed. It is one of the main shopping malls on the emirate. Wm335td (talk) 20:26, 16 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support A shopping mall is not that notable, has frequent changes, and can be covered in the Marina article. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 03:03, 26 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support All the information in the Mall article can fit into the Marina article, also it is not as notable as the Mall of the Emirates or the Dubai Mall. Matthewishere0 (talk)
Oppose Mall article can be expanded.Djflem (talk) 08:50, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This should be merged Dubai Marina Mall is no famous. Bahramdubai (talk) 12:12, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Al Sahab Towers>Merge with Dubai Marina[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Already mentioned; can be consolidated.Djflem (talk) 10:08, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose The towers are notable structures with reliable sources to support an article. We are WP:NOTPAPER so there is no reason to merge. Lightburst (talk) 14:31, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support One of many generic residential buildings there, all notable content can fit in the main article. Not sure why we need to note it has parking and a pool, this is standard for such a building and just copied from the primary source. Reywas92^Talk 20:11, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I came here from the AfD for the towers. I think the article is well written and should be kept. I see your rationale for a merge, but I think the article is more appropriate as a stand alone. Dubai is quite notable for very tall buildings. And one tower qualifies as a skyscraper Wm335td (talk) 20:25, 4 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I created the Al Sahab Towers article to help people find (and collate) detailed information about Al Sahab Towers residential development. It is not immediately apparent why the Dubai Marina article cannot simply point to articles about various developments throughout the Dubai Marina district.TBsEdits (talk) 00:29, 5 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Djflem, Wm335td, Reywas92, and TBsEdits:Those of you who have expressed opinions here might want to go to the discussion going on about deletion of the article. Lightburst (talk) 03:51, 10 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support (Came here from Article Rescue Squadron) - Per Reywas, after trimming the routine/trivial features such as parking, flat roof, etc, the content easily fits in this article. No need for a standalone. –dlthewave ☎ 02:26, 12 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
