IIMB metro station

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Only one of the added sources mentions this metro station, that too as part of a long list of stations (i.e. bare mention). I was unable to find anything else that would help this to meet WP:GNG. Recommend Redirect to Pink Line (Namma Metro). -MPGuy2824 (talk) 05:10, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete - it's WP:TOOSOON to know which individual stops/stations on the new Bengaluru metro line will be notable given that they've not yet opened. Even when they have, I suspect only a few of the major intersection stations on the line will have the level of interest needed to meet the GNG. JMWt (talk) 10:17, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep pending a discussion about all the future stations on the line. It makes no sense to discuss these stations individually as their notability will be almost identical and inconsistency will not benefit readers. If that doesn't gain consensus, I very strongly oppose deletion - the title should be a blue link and there is no cause to delete the content so it should be kept, merged or redirected.

 * Delete WP:Geoland is clear that train stations are not notable unless they meet WP:GNG. Also, as already stated it is a future train station in a long series of train stations. It is wp:toosoon to write this as a standalone article. It also does not meet WP:NRV as it lacks sufficient sources to establish it's notability. I also think any given non notable train station is WP:run-of-the-mill.James.folsom (talk) 22:05, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Pink Line (Namma Metro) per the above. I'd like to refute the unsupported assertion that any random train station is non-notable and "run-of-the-mill", as that is a WP:OSE argument; many stations meet the GNG as they are important to the communities that they serve. However, at this point there are very few sources about this particular station. Other future stations that do not meet the GNG should also be redirected for now.

 * I'm sorry, I think I wasn't clear in my vote due to constantly trying to use different language for all these similar subjects. Also none of my statements refer to other articles, so its not clear why you chose to refer to that particular section of OSE. That doesn't matter though as what I was saying is that I think any random and non-notable train station is run of the mill. But, I should have been more clear--> Train stations are very common and run of the mill, they need to have clearly demonstrable notability in order to have an article.James.folsom (talk) 23:57, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Oh, I misread you as saying that other train stations were random and thus not notable. Thanks for the clarification.My reasoning is that, although I agree that train stations may not have inherited notability, in many regions they may also be important to their respective communities, so there may be enough coverage for these stations to meet GNG. My !vote was referring to the fact that, while notability may not be demonstrated for this station, other stations may indeed be notable, so we should not determine that other stations aren't notable based on this deletion discussion. – Epicgenius (talk) 00:25, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
