And a list of wineries is not advertising or a violation of #DIR any more than a list of television stations in California|list of television stations or any other numerous :Category:Lists of companies|lists of companies. If the problem is that the list may be promoting a number of non-notable wineries then the solution, which should be discussed on the article's talk page and not at AfD, is to remove wineries which are not notable; but there is no good reason '''not''' to list notable wineries.
