The result was keep‎. I don't feel great about closing an AFD discussion for an article with a single source of unknown quality but that's the consensus here. If Merge or Redirection is an appropriate solution, please start a discussion on the article talk page. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 07:19, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Because this article does not contain a single citation, the verifiability of this article does not. and Notability (geographic features) is insufficient, and the description of the Meilong Railway Station in the article is outdated, as the station has been canceled and rebuilt into a new station called Shanghai South Railway Station. This is a violation of Wikipedia's article on Notability (geographic features), and I suggest that it be deleted to avoid misleading others. CHENG SHIYI (talk) 04:58, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Don't delete. The article does now contain a citation, but regardless deletion is not the right answer here. Either it's notable enough for it's own article or it should be merged to an appropriate article (likely the line, system or its successor). It is almost certain that most sources about this station will be in Chinese, so someone who reads that language needs to be consulted to determine what the sourcing situation actually is.

Keep. Using the WP:THREE test, Oriental Morning Post, Youth Daily and Zhejiang Online News have reported on the station (or at least its closure). Should push it above WP:GNG. Also, the article is outdated, as the station has been canceled and rebuilt into a new station called Shanghai South Railway Station is an example of a WP:OUTDATED argument, which is generally not a very valid argument for deletion.

• Keep. Satisfies WP:GNG. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:28, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
