Nea Peramos railway station

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

Unsourced article about a non-notable railway station. Fails WP:GNG. - Mr X 13:42, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages because they also fail general notability guidelines and WP:NOTDIR. It seems that the author of these articles is trying to make directory of train stops. Possibly these titles could be redirected or merged with the article for the railway line, assuming that the railway line article itself is notable:

Comment: I think it is more of lack of sources for the articles under WP:CITE. There's already an article for every station in Greater London, including the Overground (our equivalent to the Proastiakos), but they all have sources and images. --Marianian^(talk) 18:22, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep all for now. These articles were only created a few hours ago and it is way too early to say that they are not capable of meeting WP:STATION. Already they have useful content and all look legitimate stubs. We need to avoid systemic bias and give ample time for sources in Greek to be researched. They seem to have the potential for notability so this is a case where the pages should be tagged for improvement and allowed to develop, the way that the Project grows.

I am happy to change my !vote to keep if, in the next week, sources are identified showing that these individual station are notable, which seems pretty unlikely. As far it being too early to consider deletion, that's not really a good argument, since it's up to the author to verify that a subject is notable before creating an article. - Mr X 21:06, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep all They are valid stubs and because of the language it will take longer to research references (than London). Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers. This is cowardly, as there are many articles on North American stations you could have targeted. Have a go at Category:Muni Metro stations which are mostly just curbside stops. These stations are real buildings. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.100.188.147 (talk) 01:51, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This does seem to be targeted at a new user. Stations on the same line which were created by other people remain untouched. I have notified editors who may be interested but were unaware of these new articles. Sw2nd (talk) 13:59, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep all in my opinion as per WP:DONTBITE, and another question is what is stopping prevent Athens' stations from having the same scope as London's stations? Check out List of London railway stations and List of London Underground stations: all 366 National Rail and 270 Underground stations are on Wikipedia. --Marianian^(talk) 14:19, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
