 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was   redirect to National Highway 2 (India). Sourceable information can be merged, and if significant coverage can be demonstrated then the article can be spun out again in future - though, as stated, Kanpur Bypass may be a better title at that time. ~ mazca  talk 14:43, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Kanpur over-bridge

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Was nominated for A3 speedy, but the template was removed by original athor, which I have warned him about. There's no real speedy category to put it in to since he has added content, however it's just this person's opinion on a bridge, which is totally unencyclopedic.

 * Delete, pure WP:OR essay, plus no verifiable evidence of notability provided. Even a plain vanilla google search returns only the hits to Wikipedia and nothing else. So fails, WP:V as well. Nsk92 (talk) 17:21, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - It does appear that the bridge exists and is notable to the people in that area... had to search real hard... but unfortunately, I couldn't find anything that would satisfy WP:RS and as such the article falls into the realm of WP:OR. Pmedema (talk)
 * Comment: Perhaps the term "over-bridge" is confusing Google. From what I see in Google Earth, this article probably describes the Kanpur Bypass, an elevated highway that runs along the south end of the city. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 21:44, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep and rename to Kanpur Bypass. An article, even a stub article, about the longest elevated highway in a state of 190 million people is something within the scope of our project. —  C M B J   00:01, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep and rename to Kanpur Bypass. Per CMBJ's convincing argument.--SulmuesLet's talk 16:20, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Notability has not been demonstrated. (If someone can add reliable references demonstrating notability of this structure, I would reconsider.) I suggest that a section be added to National Highway 2 (India) which discusses the Kanpur Bypass and this elevated expressway. That way this topic can be covered within WP. - ¢Spender1983 (talk) 21:26, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
 * merge to National Highway 2. If more sources can be found, it can then be unmerged and expanded from the current content. Dew Kane (talk) 01:29, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
