Lumberjack (roller coaster)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Delete. Completely unsourced article about a proposed but as yet unbuilt roller coaster, which is being subject to inappropriate editwarring on the grounds that the claims about the name and the manufacturer may be false. Even if that's true, however, the appropriate way to get rid of an article is not just to erase the whole thing while leaving the title in Wikipedia as a blank page -- we have processes for getting rid of problematic content, and pageblanking is not one of them. And even if the inaccuracy claims are wrong and the article is actually correct, a roller coaster still doesn't get an automatic freebie just because it exists, if reliable source coverage about the roller coaster isn't present to support it.

Delete — Not only is this article unsourced, Wikipedia already has an article, Mystic Timbers, about a roller coaster scheduled to open at the same amusement park in 2017 and that the park also "...began dropping hints about a new future attraction soon after the start of the 2016 season." WP:RS exist for 'Mystic Timbers', as cited in that article, but 'Lumberjack' is not even vaporware. (I've looked for sources By searches related to the park, the supposed roller name, and possible manufacturers... and found only 'Mystic Timbers'... except in Wikipedia. — Neonorange (talk) 12:06, 19 October 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete. This article has no references. There isn't anything close to "significant coverage" anywhere (as per WP:GNG).  --♫CheChe♫ talk 18:55, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
