Degen und Wiegand KARL

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A minor steam locomotive, with no claim of importance. No sign of notability, either, hence fails WP:N. All based on a single source, and a search found nothing more (apart from a few wikis, at least one of which mirrors this), so fails WP:V as well. If there were an A7 category for rail locomotives I would have requested speedy, but alas there isn't, so here we are. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:48, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Merge into Krauss-Maffei Krauss-Maffei Wegmann. Provides extra content and reference that the merge target badly needs. Merge target should be cleaned up from warnings after merge. gidonb (talk) 01:04, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment I thought of that, but the K-M company is in a different line of business altogether, and was only set up 50 years after the said locomotive was built, so this might not easily fit there. If there were an article on the original Krauss company, that's where this should IMO be merged into, but there isn't, and putting it into Georg Krauß might again be a bridge too far. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:46, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Krauss-Maffei Wegmann is the railway company in its current form. Nightfury 16:14, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Well spotted, I missed that. Merging there would seem like the most sensible option to me. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:21, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
