Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Carpenters Arms
This is one of a series of frequently used pub names, such as Royal Oak, Red Lion, Bricklayers Arms, Kings Head, Queens Head, The Stag, etc. Much of the article is fluff, and not specific to the pub name: "The Alehouses helped create the "Public Houses" - the first true British Pubs in an effort to appeal to a wider audience and gain greater acceptance. Prior to this the pubs (not taverns) appealed to local tastes and often were the fronts of actual homes. These were rather ramshackled affairs appealing to occupational men."  "Over time, many "Carpenter Arms" were converted into other businesses and even private homes. Some establishments date from the 1600s and others reside in more modern buildings."  "Carpenter Arms" can be easily changed into "pubs" in that statement. Remove the non-specific information, and we are left with the Name conflict paragraph as being relevant to the name. This can easily be incorporated into the Pub names article where it would be very useful. The s are 3. Text - there is limited scope for expansion because the topic is the pub name, and once it has been established how the name has come about (a paragraph), all that is left is to list the many notable and non-notable pubs with that name, which is not the purpose of an article; and 4. Context - the subject is best understood in the context of an informative article on pub names in general, this would also help prevent 1. Duplicate - repeating general information about the development of pubs and pub names
