Burnside Avenue

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The article is mostly about a road. I see nothing to indicate this road has any sig coverage. There is one ref that is routine local coverage about a construction project. If there was some important sourced info on the road, it could be merged into U.S. Route 44, but I don't see anything appropriate to merge. There is one paragraph that says Burnside was a separate community in the 1800s (and it's in the navbox as a community). That paragraph is unsourced, but there is a possibility the article could be kept (and renamed) if any sources are found to show it was an actual distinct settlement at one time.

 * Delete Not finding anything to support that this is notable enough. The only semi-noteworthy reference I found was the single local source already included in the article. Sneakerheadguy (talk) 21:17, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete I can't believe this has survived 15 years as an article. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 21:28, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Is that a policy-based argument for deletion? - The Bushranger One ping only 02:00, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Burnside Avenue station which is a notable topic with a similar name, as the current topic fails notability. - The Bushranger One ping only 02:00, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
 * New York and Connecticut are different states, though, admittedly, it doesn't always feel that way. Redirecting to East Hartford would be a possibility. 24.151.121.140 (talk) 19:26, 15 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Comment. I'm not sure what to do with this. A redirect to U.S. Route 44 is possible, with a hat note. There's not much written about this CT street per se. The street in the Bronx, NY, has a local and express 4 trains' station associated with it, and was my childhood neighborhood, but it's not well-known as Tremont Avenue, which is parallel to it. This street is really just part of Route 44. Bearian (talk) 22:25, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete a non-notable street. Of course I also think the street I live on Alter Road is not notable either. At least the article we have on it does not have the level of reliable, 3rd party, indepdent secondary sources providing indepth coverage we would need to justify an article. At best it probably should be upmerged to an article on the bounaries of Detroit, although where I live on it we are fully in Detroit (technically Alter is all fully in Detroit, further south some Alter residents have the back line of their property as the city boundary).John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:24, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
