Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Assam

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Assam. 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|Assam|~~~~}} 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 Assam. 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.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to India.

Articles for deletion

Nagaon railway station

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

Other than brief mentions, Searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage from independent, reliable sources to support meeting WP:GNG. Would have redirected ATD, but could not find a reasonable target. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 20:24, 6 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Stations, Transportation, India, and Assam. Shellwood (talk) 20:58, 6 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nagaon railway station clearly meets Wikipedia’s notability criteria under WP:RAIL. It is an active station on the Northeast Frontier Railway, serving the town of Nagaon in Assam with station code "NGAN". The station is listed in official timetables, with multiple express and passenger trains halting there daily. As a vital piece of regional infrastructure with verifiable coverage, it justifies having its own standalone Wikipedia article. Aryan^{Talk} 07:38, 11 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - WP:RAIL is neither a policy nor a guideline.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 09:20, 11 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- And it's not even an essay - it's a WikiProject, and the page (rightfully) says nothing about notability. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 22:32, 11 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Golaghat highway accident

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

Causing deaths and being reported in the news do not confer notability, and high-casualty bus crashes are common. Fails WP:EVENT. Per WP:NOPAGE, this is better covered at List of traffic collisions (2000–present) or possibly an article about the location. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 04:41, 6 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
