Bridge over Fountain Creek (Manitou Avenue)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:NBUILD. It is one of 80 things that make up the Manitou Springs Historic District and it's already described on the List of Manitou Springs Historic District buildings. It lacks sufficient notability for its own article. The article's first reference doesn't mention the bridge directly; it only lists the historic district.

 * I have a tendency to create articles for National Register of Historic Places listings in El Paso County, Colorado - so it must have been on that page at some point. It's fine with me if it's merged (due to its historical significance) into the Manitou Springs Historic District article.–CaroleHenson (talk) 15:21, 6 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Merge There are two bridges over Fountain Creek in the area with historic significance of some sort; a bridge over US 24 that's individually listed on the National Register, and this one. The original version of the article was still about this bridge, but included the NRHP listing information for the other bridge, which probably explains the confusion over whether this one was individually listed. At any rate, it's not, and there's nothing suggesting it shouldn't be merged into List of Manitou Springs Historic District buildings. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 12:57, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge - Fails WP:GNG, and merging with the Manitou Springs Historic District article seems the best option. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:15, 8 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Merge seems fine. In this edit, I just inserted a redirect target into the item's row in the list-article table, i.e. I inserted id="Bridge over Fountain Creek", so that Bridge over Fountain Creek (Manitou Avenue) can be changed to redirect to List of Manitou Springs Historic District buildings. --Doncram (talk) 21:40, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, to treat this properly in the list-article item, I feel it needs to link in a "see also" way to the separately listed Bridge over Fountain Creek. Which did not yet have an article.  So I started Bridge over Fountain Creek (U.S. Route 24) just now.  Please anyone feel free to add to that (e.g. find and add historic HABS pictures about it), but I think it is okay as a stub article for now. --Doncram (talk) 22:08, 11 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Hmm, I think the disambiguation between the two places perhaps should be improved. According to U.S. Route 24 in Colorado, the business route 24 is Manitou Avenue.  So they are both on the same street.  Disambiguating by street then doesn't seem so good.  On Bridge over Fountain Creek disambiguation page, we have two items, with "(U.S. Route 24)" and one with "(Manitou Avenue)".  Argh. What to do, if anything? --Doncram (talk) 22:28, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
