Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Capital of the North
As it stands the article is unreferenced streamofconsciousness  .  The phrase "capital of the north" is used from time to time (and |verifiably applied to Manchester, at least), but it's totally unofficial.  I don't think an article will ever go far
