 * 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 List of airports in New Jersey. The arguments that the sources are not sufficient to establish notability seem more persuasive; and the redirect seems like a valid alternative to deletion. (non-admin closure) RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 00:30, 26 April 2022 (UTC)

Pemberton Airport

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

This private airport has no evidence of notability. Most of my searches turned up an airport of the same name in Canada. Fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:NAIRPORT which states "Significant, independent and reliable sources specifically about the airport must exist" AusLondonder (talk) 14:00, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep. Likely to meet WP:GNG.  The airport has operated since 1951, and operated as a public access airport until 2006.   In the period of June 1997 to June 1998, the airport had 12,000 takeoffs and landings, with facilities onsite to perform major airframe and engine repairs.  This isn't a dirt strip in some farmer's field.   Using Newspapers.com is of limited use in this case because the site doesn't carry any local newspapers, but still turns up other mentions in the state newspapers.  The airport was the site of a fatal light plane crash in 1995, as the pilot was attempting to land.    It was the site of another non-fatal crash in 2004 of an antique plane, and an ultralight plane in 2016. In another case in 1957, a man was killed at the airport by the propeller of a plane on the ground at the airport.  Using only the online sources available to me, I turned up enough mentions of the airport in a few minutes of searching to find enough to justify de-prodding the article, and subsequently voicing a keep opinion here on "likely" GNG grounds.

 * None of those mentions seem to be addressing the airport specifically, rather are routine local news about incidents. I don't see those mentions as meeting the criteria at NAIRPORT: "Significant, independent and reliable sources specifically about the airport must exist."

 * Keep per the sources and arguments by RecycledPixels. Alansohn (talk) 18:07, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete No indepth sourcing that would meet the level of GNG has been provided. Incidental mentions to not make a thing notable. Airports probably should pass our inclusion guidelines for organizations, and this clearly does not meet those standards.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:07, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Why delete? When a clear ATD is Redirects are cheap and Wikipedia:R? Airports are geographical features. Djflem (talk) 10:43, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
