Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of leading shopping streets and districts by city
the criteria for inclusion is vauge, vast, subjective and relative to the culture, size and affluence of a place. Some of the entries on the list contradict the criteria - e.g. if only the largest cities have more than two at most such areas, why are there three distinct areas in Cardiff (only the List of largest United Kingdom settlements by population|14th most populous city in the UK). It does not normally distinguish between adjacent streets with similar character (e.g. Bristol) and distinct areas within a large metropolitan area (e.g. Birmingham). Where it does distinguish it does this in multiple ways (e.g. compare London and Cardiff). Finally, without any sources the whole thing smacks of |original research. If there is value in a list like this (and I'm not convinced there is, although well defined and sourced lists for metropolitan areas within a country might have merit) then it will be much easier to start again with soruces that demonstrate the entries meet the well-defined objective criteria
