Disputed WP:PROD. There are is only 1 notable entry in this list (only 3 entries overall). No reliable sources. The article is basically a linkspam farm. Wikipedia is not a directory. IronGargoyle (talk) 03:09, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

- Keep The length of a list is not a valid deletion criteria. A fast websearch reveals at least 10 breweries in Mississippi, this list could be expanded. At least one of the breweries not on this list appears notable. Even so, per WP:CSC, lists may contain nonnotable entries; in fact - they may be set up to contain nothing but non-notable entries. These lists are valid for navigation, although consensus may end up renaming or shaping them differently at some point in the future, it is not hard to add links to them now. There are a plethora of books and articles about beers. I updated parts of several of these lists including List of breweries in California. It was not hard and I learned that beer brewing is one of the largest non-durable industries in the U.S. and growing at a rate of up to 20% per year. Therefore I think the entire topic is relevant. I have worked on many lists in Wiki before and never encountered this sort of situation because WP:CSC does not demand citations on each line and states that a list may contain non-notable entries.

- Speedy keep. This is a sub-article of List of breweries in the United States. If we wish it deleted it is that article that should be nominated with a centralised discussion. Having 50 separate discussions is hopeless and risks contradictory decisions. Lists with non-notable entries are permitted per WP:CSC. SpinningSpark 19:05, 21 January 2014 (UTC)
