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.

Redirect to Myrtle Avenue Elevated#Station listing (or perhaps merge to Central Avenue station (BMT Myrtle Avenue Line)#History). The closed elevated stations are a mixed bag as far as notability goes. Because of its short lifespan and early closure, there doesn't seem to be any significant coverage of this station. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 00:50, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to BMT_Myrtle_Avenue_Line#Opening: or the table below where it's mentioned. Insufficient coverage to merit a standalone article. Star Mississippi 00:59, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. If this article gets deleted, then every other closed station article like Park Avenue should get deleted as well, and this sets a bad precedent. —LRG5784 (talk · contribs · email) 03:17, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:WAX is not a valid argument in a deletion discussion. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 03:27, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  WP:WAX doesn't actually say that this is never a valid argument; it only says that it may not be a very convincing one. Tduk (talk) 03:51, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Per pending expansion. Cards84664 03:32, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep If deleted, it's entirely possible that, down the road, some overly-eager editor will remove the relevant information from whatever article this is merged into, as it's a minor part of the line's history. Being from so long ago, sources are also going to be hard to find, so I don't want to dismiss there being more good sources out there. Never mind that I'm not sure who following such a pessimistic possibly overly-literal interpretation of the deletion policy helps in this case - though fixing policy is another discussion entirely. Tduk (talk) 03:49, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Mights aren't a good reason to keep. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 08:49, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The references already present in the article appear to be adequate. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 17:43, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, so, just so we're clear, an article with 4 sources, 2 of which do not mention the subject, one which is a map, and the final one which has a brief mention of the subject, are enough to show notability? Interesting.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 01:21, 10 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to BMT Myrtle Avenue Line#Station listing (note this is where the above-suggested Myrtle Avenue Elevated#Station listing redirects to). Insufficently independently notable station that is entirely reasonable to redirect to the line. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 08:49, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to BMT Myrtle Avenue Line#Station listing: Non-notable station. Not enough SIGCOV. — Itzcuauhtli11 (talk) 05:46, 17 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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]

Did you use an LLM to produce this comment? Cremastra (talk) 13:30, 16 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]

comment Usual practice for stations about which there is no particular detail or notability claim is to redirect it to a listing of stations for the line or railroad. Mangoe (talk) 03:15, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
