Non-notable street, no evidence is passes WP:GNG. Notability is not inherited from the tram stop or Leppings Lane End at the Hillsborough Stadium Joseph2302 (talk) 10:33, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

- Keep The article is about the street and the tram stop and the stand at Hillsborough. This broad topic is therefore notable, passes the WP:GNG and so should be kept. Deletion would not be sensible because its title is the common name of all these aspects and so making it a red link would be disruptive and unhelpful to our readers.

Keep per above. Toys515 (talk) 12:09, 24 May 2019 (UTC)sock comment struck Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 12:39, 24 May 2019 (UTC)- Delete nothing particularly noteworthy about the street, the stand and tram stop are named the same because of were they physically are, not because the street is of any note. The tram stop doesnt appear to be of any particularly note either but this shouldnt be used as a parking slot because it or the stand cant sustain an article. If they were of any note then this could be a dab page but a redirect to Hillsborough Stadium might be worth looking at. MilborneOne (talk) 12:53, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

- Comment I'm torn between a redirect to Hillsborough Stadium (lots of coverage, but all about the stadium) and a weak keep, since the etymology is sourced. SportingFlyer T·C 20:42, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Existence of an etymology isn't grounds for notability; would a generic "Oak Street" be notable just for being sourced that oak trees were nearby? The quoted citation is not remotely substantive coverage about this street. The stops (not stations) on the tram are not notable for being a stop (other stops link to the district or nearby landmark). It does not make sense to combine an article for both the non-notable street and non-notable stands that are nearby anyway, and that's covered in the stadium article (the north stand and south stand are likewise not notable). A redirect would be fine though. Reywas92Talk 23:09, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
