Comment: This is an exceptionally difficult AfD to figure out. First, we normally keep buildings that are on the national historical register even if they're poorly covered otherwise, because we consider the NRHS a source. In this instance, the entire area is on the register, and the building only gets a couple of sentences of lip service within the NRHS source - not the significant coverage we usually see. Also, it appears much of the actual coverage of the hall is in university sources, making it lack independence - there's an architectural journal in which it gets a mention and also a Knute Rockne journal article in which it gets a mention.

So on one hand, you can make a good argument that there's plenty of coverage about the building, and on the other you can make a good argument that the building has only really been covered by sources closely associated with it. Since it's a building it's not a huge deal whether or not it gets kept, in my opinion, but it's honestly questionable as to whether it deserves its own article per  and 's secondary sourcing requirement as opposed to being mentioned in a list of Notre Dame residence halls, or in an article about the historical district as a whole. (I just realised the poorly attended original AfD went to DRV in 2019 and there was general agreement there that this should remain a redirect, so I'm upgrading from my "probably redirect" to a "redirect
