Gilmore Junction, Nebraska

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

As supported by source provided and topos, this is a railroad junction, not a community. Deprodder said "it appears to now be part of a suburb of Omaha, see the usual channel for merging this into the correct suburb" but there's nothing to merge. Again, this is a generic former railroad junction   not an unincorporated community as incorrectly claimed. Reywas92Talk 18:48, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete not notable per our SNG and GNG. Fails WP:GEOLAND#2 Lightburst (talk) 22:53, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Question: Would redirecting to an appropriate target be more helpful than outright deletion? Newyorkbrad (talk) 11:44, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge into Gilmore, Nebraska which is the associated town. Andrew🐉(talk) 15:21, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Rail junction does not meet WP:GNG. As for the possibility of redirect, I would treat it like we would a numbered freeway exit: It may be appropriate to mention as part of a route description on a page about the respective railroad, but I don't think every junction, spur or siding needs its own redirect. –dlthewave ☎ 16:22, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge to Gilmore, Nebraska, as it is the town that is closest. A possible search term. ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs )~ 00:07, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

 * delete The junction isn't particularly close to the supposed Gilmore, which itself is a problem because, in spite of the claims of the article, it doesn't appear to have any real physical trace: the topos show a yard there and nothing else. Anyway, the junction is and was always just a rail junction with nothing related around it. Mangoe (talk) 01:30, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
