GP40MC Locomotive

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Likely permastub with no assertion of notability. Article is a complete mess. Probably should be merged with something; just not sure what  Purpleback pack  89  ≈≈≈≈  20:26, 4 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment This looks like one of many nicely done stubs on individual GMD Locomotives. Knowing the number of train buffs and train buff publications out there wp:notability-suitable source probably exist. So I think that these are valid as a bunch of nicely done stubs, but would be better off  in a consolidated article on GMD locomotives. North8000 (talk) 20:46, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Nicely done? It's incomplete, and rife with broken links and grammatical errors!  Purpleback  pack  89  ≈≈≈≈  22:55, 4 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete This is a model of locomotive, of which 25 were said to have been made. No references were included in the article to satisfy WP:N. Edison (talk) 23:42, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Speedy redirect to EMD GP40, which should have been done before coming to AfD. - The Bushranger One ping only 02:25, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Um, I didn't know where to redirect it to before you mentioned a plausible redirect target. I started the AfD at least in part to find plausible redirect targets  Purpleback  pack  89  ≈≈≈≈  03:57, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
 * No worries. - The Bushranger One ping only 20:45, 5 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Redirect, although I have a different target. This is a duplication of the GMD GP40MC article and that redirects to EMD GP40-based passenger locomotives. I suggest a merge of the EMD GP40-based passenger locomotives and EMD GP40 articles though. Edgepedia (talk) 18:12, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
