one big listing of overly detailed busroutes The Banner talk 16:41, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The nom is only concerned with the over-emphasis on transportation and not with notability. It's a designated population center[1] that even has its own train station.[2] Problems with the article is a matter of editing, not deletion per WP:DEL-CONTENT.--Oakshade (talk) 18:06, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:N. Three brief mentions that such a place exists, all three in reference to a bus stop finally coming there, doesn't qualify as substantial coverage in reliable secondary sources. Oakshade above says "keep" on the basis of the same guideline, but that guideline isn't satisfied. If Oakshade is convinced there is substantial coverage of the neighborhood, as a neighborhood, and what it's notable for, by all means please show us those sources. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ≼ 19:02, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
False. I said "Keep" because the nom's only stated rationale to delete because of current article state, not notability, and that it's a designated population center, so much so there's even a train station. Such a neighborhood in the United States or UK would never even be considered for deletion. Is this a case of systemic bias? --Oakshade (talk) 20:42, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Without the bus routes you have no realistic content left. The Banner talk 23:05, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
More than just buses. New Garia is going to be the terminus of the New Garia-Airport Metro line on the Kolkata Metro from Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport to New Garia.[3][4][5] No government spends equivalent to USD$4 billion for metros to non-notable places. --Oakshade (talk) 23:39, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I will not stop you from changing this bus book into a proper article. The Banner talk 09:23, 13 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It's been reduced to a stub and not longer "one big listing of overly detailed busroutes," the only stated criteria for this Afd.--Oakshade (talk) 01:41, 15 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Wrong, as expected the IP has restored the route information The Banner talk 13:04, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
And I reverted the totally unsourced content addition. This is an issue with a problem editor, not notability. Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup is a worthwhile essay. --Oakshade (talk) 18:54, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Oakshade - Don't mean to sound like a dick but the nom should've just removed the list ... Not sent a village article here because of the list. List has been removed so no reason to delete .–Davey2010^Talk 00:55, 18 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- It was stubified but the IP has restored the route information... The Banner talk 13:05, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  - So why not revert the IP ? .... You sent an article here because an IP added a whole load of shit anyone could've and should've reverted ?, It just seems rather silly but there we go. –Davey2010^Talk 19:02, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
