WP is not a directory, not a collection of indiscriminate information. This page is WP:SYNTH. Even Google itself does not have this kind of pages. Wikipedia is not in business to document timelines of each and every move of Google products. Staszek Lem (talk) 20:56, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
- Keep This is not SYNTH, nor is it a directory. It's just a detailed bit of cartographic history. Andrew D. (talk) 21:14, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
- This is WP:SYNTH mainly from primary sources. It is not a "cartographic history" it is a dubious self-written history of Google Maps. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:16, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
- No, it still isn't synth. Synth is when you combine facts to arrive at a novel conclusion. Per WP:NOTSYNTH, "SYNTH is not mere juxtaposition". Andrew D. (talk) 21:29, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
- Yes it is WP:SYNTH: the facts from primary source are combined to make a false impression about the state of the coverage. There is no secndary sources which directly discuss this particular topic in depth, hence original research it is. Staszek Lem (talk) 22:25, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
- What false impression? Lem still fails to state what the supposed synthesis is. And there are certainly plenty of secondary sources which discuss the history of Street View in detail such as Inside Google Street View, Going Places: A History of Google Maps with Street View and Google Street View maps Greenland.

- Delete This is going to be a long list of every place, town, city, metropolis, village, hamlet and a few more. That will make it an indiscriminate list of everything, falling foul of WP:NOT and coming close to WP:OR when not sourced. By now, most sources already fail WP:RS.

- Merge with Google Street View, while most of this article is OR, all that needs to be done is to remove the timeline of introductions as the rest is sourced anyway. - Champion (talk) (contribs) (Formerly TheChampionMan1234) 23:00, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
- If you delete "inroductions" there is exactly 4 statements, sourced from Google press-releases about features, which are already in Google Street View#History and features. Staszek Lem (talk) 00:40, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
