The second was to eliminate the neutral section of RfA/RfB and only have support and oppose. Consensus reached that the first proposal will make it more difficult for RfA to follow and is counter to the existing community consensus that RfA is not a vote.

In the UK alone there are 2,500 current stations (the vast majority of which have articles) and almost three times that number of closed stations, many of which also have articles. A lot of the articles are little more than stubs which only show that the station exists (or existed). Finding sources to show that each of these passes GNG would be time consuming, especially for closed stations given that most of the closures occurred many years ago. I can't help thinking that these articles do no harm and all this effort could be used more productively. <a href="/wiki/User:Neiltonks" title="User:Neiltonks">Neiltonks</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Neiltonks" title="User talk:Neiltonks">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2022-08-01/Discussion_report#c-Neiltonks-20220802134300-Bahnfrend-20220802063300" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">13:43, 2 August 2022 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Neiltonks-20220802134300-Bahnfrend-20220802063300"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Neiltonks-20220802134300-Bahnfrend-20220802063300"></span></li></ul> <dl><dd><dl><dd><span class="template-ping"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Bahnfrend-20220802140900-Neiltonks-20220802134300"></span>@<a href="/wiki/User:Neiltonks" title="User:Neiltonks">Neiltonks</a>:</span> I doubt that AfDs will be much of a problem in relation to railway stations in the UK. There are hundreds of books on UK railways that can be cited as reliable sources on such stations. For example, I understand that <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.middletonpress.co.uk/">Middleton Press</a> has published a book about pretty much every railway line that has ever existed in the UK (see <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.middletonpress.co.uk/about-us.html">this page</a> for brief details - 500 books by 2011 and many more since), and that all of those books are potential reliable sources for Wikipedia articles about the individual stations on those lines. The problem is far more likely to arise in relation to articles about stations in countries that are not mad keen on railways, developing countries (eg India and most countries in Africa) and countries where English is not the first language, and also articles that are translations of Wikipedia articles originally published in other languages. <a href="/wiki/User:Bahnfrend" title="User:Bahnfrend">Bahnfrend</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Bahnfrend" title="User talk:Bahnfrend">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2022-08-01/Discussion_report#c-Bahnfrend-20220802140900-Neiltonks-20220802134300" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:09, 2 August 2022 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Bahnfrend-20220802140900-Neiltonks-20220802134300"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Bahnfrend-20220802140900-Neiltonks-20220802134300"></span></dd> <dd><span class="template-ping"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Dutchy45-20220803164300-Neiltonks-20220802134300"></span>@<a href="/wiki/User:Neiltonks" title="User:Neiltonks">Neiltonks</a>:</span> I don't have strong opinions (or even weak ones) about keeping/deleting railway station articles but neither of your arguments (no harm <i>and</i> productivity) should be a reason to keep. <a href="/wiki/User:Dutchy45" title="User:Dutchy45">Dutchy45</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Dutchy45" title="User talk:Dutchy45">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2022-08-01/Discussion_report#c-Dutchy45-20220803164300-Neiltonks-20220802134300" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:43, 3 August 2022 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Dutchy45-20220803164300-Neiltonks-20220802134300"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Dutchy45-20220803164300-Neiltonks-20220802134300"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl> <ul><li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Ottawajin-20220804114400-Bahnfrend-20220802063300"></span>As Neiltonks mentioned earlier, I don't see the harm in keeping many of these station articles. In the case of Canada (whose stations I mostly edit) Wikipedia information on train stations is more comprehensive than the official websites - and can be of great assistance to travelers. Train stations are also often central to the local history of the many towns and cities that grew up around them. If Wikipedia considers hundreds of pages on obscure anime titles and characters to be notable, why must train stations meet a higher standard? <a href="/wiki/User:Ottawajin" title="User:Ottawajin">Ottawajin</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Ottawajin" title="User talk:Ottawajin">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2022-08-01/Discussion_report#c-Ottawajin-20220804114400-Bahnfrend-20220802063300" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">11:44, 4 August 2022 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Ottawajin-20220804114400-Bahnfrend-20220802063300"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Ottawajin-20220804114400-Bahnfrend-20220802063300"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Trainsandotherthings-20220804145300-Ottawajin-20220804114400"></span>As the one who started it, the RfC was made necessary by several editors who maintained that no train station articles could ever be merged, not even the tiniest stubs, because they were always "inherently notable". This made it impossible to deal with permastubs better merged into rail line articles. The findings of the RfC make it clear that merging train stations is acceptable when there's little coverage of them in reliable secondary sources. For the vast majority of train station articles, nothing will change. The "harm" was in letting permastubs, some with zero reliable sources, remain standalone articles even when their accuracy was questionable. It's usually not difficult for a train station to clear GNG, and if it falls well short, the station can be redirected to the line or service it is a part of, leaving open the possibility of recreating a standalone article if more sources are identified in the future. There's not going to be a "cleanse"; I watch the transportation deletion sorting page and a grand total of 2 train stations have been brought to AfD recently, one was a wrong name and was deleted for that reason, the other was redirected to the article for the line it is on, where it lives quite nicely without any real loss of information. What may happen is a number of short stubs getting merged. <a href="/wiki/User:Trainsandotherthings" title="User:Trainsandotherthings">Trainsandotherthings</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Trainsandotherthings" title="User talk:Trainsandotherthings">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2022-08-01/Discussion_report#c-Trainsandotherthings-20220804145300-Ottawajin-20220804114400" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:53, 4 August 2022 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Trainsandotherthings-20220804145300-Ottawajin-20220804114400"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Trainsandotherthings-20220804145300-Ottawajin-20220804114400"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Ottawajin-20220805112400-Trainsandotherthings-20220804145300"></span>Thanks for the concise summary.
