List of ACoRP members

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Disputed Prod. We have no article for the ACoRP or for most of the members, and we have List of British heritage and private railways for those lines not included in the national lines or with their own article. The railway lines are important, the CRPs not so much (in general). No notability for the list subject. Fram (talk) 06:58, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
 * delete and merge relevant content into List of British heritage and private railways. I think this article is somewhat spartan, does not give a reader a clear picture.  Not a notable subject.  DangerDogWest (talk) 07:12, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Struck content from confirmed sock above, per WP:SOCKSTRIKE. North America1000 03:59, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep - The people proposing deletion do not seem to understand the subject. Community rail partnerships have nothing to do with Heritage and private railways. They are support groups for certain National Rail lines. Biscuittin (talk) 22:11, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Which is not a reason to keep the article, of course. Fram (talk) 15:25, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - this is not anything to do with heritage railways and anyway this article could do with a revamp and possibly even a rename to something like List of community rail partnerships in the United Kingdom. For example, the Borders Railway is a community railway line. Proposed lines also do not count. Simply south ...... time, deparment skies for just 9 years 17:40, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Which still doesn't address the lack of notability for this list of CRPs. Yes, I shouldn't have mentioned heritage railways (the list didn't do a very good job of explaining what it was about anyway), but that it is about standard rail lines and not heritage rail lines doesn't change the reason for deletion, which neither of the keeps have so far addressed. Fram (talk) 18:47, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Community rail partnerships are special types of railway lines with an organisation on each line representing the communities they serve. Why would this not be notable? It would be too big to fit into community rail (and besides it is incomplete). How about List of train operating companies or List of railway bridges and viaducts in the United Kingdom. Each describes an important aspect of the UK rail system. Simply south ...... time, deparment skies for just 9 years 19:00, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
 * If it is an important aspect, shouldn't we at least have an article on ACoRP, and on some more of these members? Now neither the organisation nor the members have any evidence of being notable subjects, and a list of mainly non-notable members of a non-notable group has no place here. Even a list of notable members of a non-notable group has no place; without evidence that the ACoRP is a notable association, there is no reason to have a list of their members. Fram (talk) 21:01, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, there is an article on it as it is part of the community rail one. For the organisation itself, see here. It is sponsored by train operating companies and the government. See here. Simply south ...... time, deparment skies for just 9 years 21:20, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
 * So what you actually mean is not "yes..." but "No, we only have a short paragraph on it, with one primary source". Your links do again nothing to establish any notability. Fram (talk) 07:40, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * , and I'm sure it's pretty easy to find other uindustry sources. -mattbuck (Talk) 09:04, 29 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep. Two of the listed ACoRP members have their own Wikipedia articles, but several others are sufficiently notable that they could have one. Martinogk (talk) 04:29, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
