Birmingham bus station

Delete Fails WP:N. Google search shows 71 ghits, but no significant coverage in secondary or third party reliable source.  Otolemur crassicaudatus  (talk) 21:29, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: This refers to the bus station in Birmingham, England, not Birmingham, Alabama, United States. The latter might actually have notability because of violence which occurred there during the U.S. civil rights movement. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 21:35, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. If this doesn't fail WP:N nothing will.   WEBURIEDOURSECRETSINTHEGARDEN   aka john lennon  23:18, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Sorry, the encyclopedia doesn't need a list of bus routes. Majoreditor (talk) 00:56, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm sure there's lots of things that can be written about Birmingham but the buses that ply from the bus station is not one of them. Not notable. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 02:31, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-existant, according to the first sentence of the article. Phil Bridger (talk) 13:12, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - The bus station might be notable if it existed, but as it doesn't, and there's no particularly unusual reason why it doesn't, this is merely a non-notable list of bus routes. —  Tivedshambo  (t 08:00, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete - to quote the article, "Birmingham, England does not have a major bus station". Since the bus station does not exist, the article cannot be permitted to survive.  There was a bus station under the Old Bull Ring Centre, but that is not what the artiel is about.  Bus routes change periodically.  The bus operators have an incentive to maintain their own websites, WP does not.  This articel will thus be difficult to maintain, which is another good reason for deletion.  Several times in recent months articles on bus routes have been deleted, and this should be no exception.  Peterkingiron (talk) 21:20, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
