Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Bloomingdales locations
How does this fail #DIR?  I am not seeing it.  In the context of an AFD nom, a directory is a list of pointers, like a web directory.  This article is merely a list of units (or former units) by state, and for each one lists the city it was in, the mall it anchored (many shopping centers have their own articles), and historical information such as the year it opened and closed.  They do not list either the street address or the phone numbers for each unit, thus the Yellow Pages argument is invalid, especially when the unit is defunct.  Thus I ask, is this list even a directory to begin with, and if so then how?  If it is, then #DIR would conflict directly with what  says concerning lists of units in a chain
