WP:DELSORT/Stations

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Stations. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Stations|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Stations. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

No sign of notability. All three used sources are databases. I did not find any good sources and cswiki does not contain any either. FromCzech (talk) 05:28, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Lodhran–Raiwind Branch Line. To give context, I came across this article yesterday, felt that something was fishy, and did a dive into the sources only to find that almost every single one was being severely misrepresented (diff). This article does not have sufficient sourcing to meet GNG. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 12:25, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Lodhran–Raiwind Branch Line. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PunjabiEditor69 (talk • contribs) 18:11, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You were the same person who added this "fan club" source, weren't you? Why are you adding such sources? - PunjabiEditor69 (talk) 19:58, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@SheriffIsInTown - PunjabiEditor69 (talk) 19:58, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your question is beyond the scope of this discussion. That source was added in an effort to provide some sourcing to a completely unsourced article so it could be removed from the unsourced list. Its presence does not confer notability. These articles just add to the management overhead for editors. Thank you for the reminder — I will be nominating other such articles for deletion as well. I hope I can count on your support, since you were the one who raised this point. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 20:46, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

We should redirect pages of small stations that have no reliable sources. - PunjabiEditor69 (talk) 08:23, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Jihlava-Staré Hory railway station

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

No sign of notability, a railway station is not notable just for being a railway station. The first source is a passing mention, the second does not mention the station at all, the third is a database. Draftification is also an alternative for this recently created page, but I doubt there is room for improvement – I didn't find any sources other than databases and cswiki doesn't contain any either.

Sammakorn MRT station

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Per WP:NTRAINSTATION, train stations have no inherent notability. The sources in this article, and others online, only mention this station in passing as an addition to Bankok's Orange Line. This page should either be deleted or redirected to the orange line page. Garsh (talk) 16:21, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Orange Line (Bangkok)#Stations Bit WP:TOOSOON given the station only opens in 2030. Jumpytoo Talk 17:02, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Either Keep all Orange Line stations articles or Redirect all.

🐲Jothefiredragon🔥talk🧨contributions✨log🐉 06:26, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Agree with Jothefiredragon in that there doesn't seem to be any point in singling out just this article; a mass nomination would be more appropriate. That said, at worst these should be redirected rather than deleted, so unless the action proves controversial AfD doesn't seem necessary. --Paul_012 (talk) 11:03, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Utsunomiya University Yoto Campus Station

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is a railway station that appears to lack independent coverage. As best I can tell (not Japanese), most of the listed sources are either from the city of Utsunomiya itself or passing mentions that are actually covering Utsunomiya Light Rail as a whole. Per WP:NTRAINSTATION, this station doesn't appear to be notable on its own. This page should either be deleted or redirected to the rail system page linked above.

Redirect Along with several other stations for the reasons above. Please speedy close this AfD unless there is somehow a consensus to delete it instead of redirecting it back to the line article.

Redirect to Utsunomiya Light Rail per above as ATD. Noting that this qualifies for G7 as Alpha was the only significant contributor and they have voted for redirection Jumpytoo Talk 16:45, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nasimi (Baku Metro)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Seems unlikely that sources exist which show that every stop on this metro line are notable per WP:STATION. Other language WP pages are poorly referenced, at best they show the station exists in public timetables etc. WP:NOTEVERYTHING JMWt (talk) 13:38, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I believe that this metro stop is notable as it is an example of post-Soviet architecture in Azerbaijan. Most metro stations in the former Soviet Union have unique architectural features, see stations of the Saint Petersburg Metro. You would not delete a station article for the New York City Subway or the Moscow Metro so why delete this one? Zbase4 (talk) 01:58, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: WP:NTRAINSTATION says "train stations have no inherent notability and are not presumed notable for simply being train stations." I believe this applies to metro stations as well. — Itzcuauhtli11 (talk) 18:05, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Week Keep I found one source:

AZERTAC (2024-06-04). Laməkan şairin metrodakı məkanı. Retrieved 2025-05-17 – via YouTube.

In addition, the Azerbaijani Wiki has two additional sources but they are both dead links & I cannot revive on Archive.org. From the titles they suggest SIGCOV & searching their former domains they seemed to be news sources so I will WP:AGF of the original Wiki authors and assume they are SIGCOV RS. Jumpytoo Talk 01:18, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Baku Metro. There is nothing for a stand alone article. Lacking in notability as a trainstation. Ramos1990 (talk) 05:45, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
