Other Vivastations

 * – ( View AfD View log )

In two past AfD's, most VIVAstation articles were successfully deleted, with exceptions mostly being terminals. This article was originally created because, due to consensus at the time that most VIVAstation articles were notable, some VIVAstations were determined to not be notable and were lumped into one giant collection of unnotable stations to avoid deletion. Quite simply, none of these stations are notable- and that means that the entire article has no more purpose here. You can even seen from the pictures that these aren't major transportation hubs, but are rather small roadside equivalents of bus stops. Let's finish the job and delete this page.

 * Delete This is now redundant without the previously deleted related articles. I originally created this page to fill in the gaps where Viva stations did not have their own article. Secondarywaltz (talk) 13:17, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment: I deleted per WP:CSD at their author's request a string of templates such as Template:S-line/YRT right/Viva Purple used in this article; it has been suggested to me that deletion was premature and that I should have waited until the fate of the article was determined. I will restore them if anyone feels it necessary for this discussion. JohnCD (talk) 19:41, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Reply: Since most of the articles were previously deleted and the remaining use of the templates all redirected to the same page, or had red links, the succession just did not function properly. Secondarywaltz (talk) 20:38, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I dont object so much as the article still exists and has a bunch of G7 templates on it. If we remove them from the article, then it doesnt matter one way or another to me.--v/r - TP 00:46, 17 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep Although Vivastations were determined to not be notable individually, there are a few which have interesting histories, such as Warden Vivastation, the first BRT station to be built. I moved some notable and terminal stations here after their individual articles were deleted.  I propose renaming this article "Notable Vivastations", keeping the entries for MSH and Warden, while deleting the ones with next to no content. Reaperexpress (talk) 20:09, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment: While Warden is a true BRT station, if it is notable enough it should be able to sustain its own article, or be merged into VivaNext, or it could be part of an article on Viva Rapidways. I can find no details about the Enterprise Rapidway in Wikipedia except where it relates to photographs you took of the Warden Vivastation. The MSH Vivastation is only one curbside bus shelter beside Markham Stouffville Hospital, one of the poorest examples of station facilities. We are the main contibutors here, and we both agree that very little of the content is worth keeping. Why don't you merge what you feel is worthy of retaining and choose to delete the rest?

 * Comment Delete -- My doubts about this article is that it seems to be about busstops, which are clearly NN. I would not recommend merging with Viva, as that would unbalance the article.  Accordingly if kept. rename to "Notable Vivastations" or just "Vivastations".  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:46, 26 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - These Vivastations are essentially glorified bus stops. We don't need a list of bus stops. -- Whpq (talk) 14:10, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. They're slightly glorified bus stops.  PK  T (alk)  13:10, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
