Pernem railway station

Fails WP:NTRAINSTATION and WP:GNG. Train stations are not inherently notable unless they meet general or a subject specific notability guideline. Nothing special about this train station Nagol0929 (talk) 13:01, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete or merge with List of railway stations in India per nom. The article is largely unsourced, with the only 3 sources concerningly being from Railway Inquiry. The 🏎 Corvette 🏍 ZR1(The Garage) 13:26, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep or merge with the article about the line it's on. Deletion would be harmful. Thryduulf (talk) 10:11, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * The line that it is on is Konkan Railway and that is very clearly the better target for merger, given that there are lots of things about the Konkan Railway that discuss its various stations together, in context, starting with which has Pernem in the route description on page 300 for example.  Amusingly, the entire "Location" section of the article at hand, which is a fair fraction of the entire article content, is about the line and not about the station.  I wouldn't merge any of it, personally, though, because a lot of it appears to be Wikipedia editor speculation. Quite a lot of the stations on the Konkan Railway, including the next two stops along Thivim railway station and Karmali railway station, have these woeful articles, sourced only to the railway company's own rail listings.  I suspect from a quick look around that there's enough sourcing out there to make articles for all of these, but no-one has been trying to write things properly for years.  There might be enough on the multiple Pernem tunnel collapses to make this a fully-fledged article, for instance, and in that respect I lean towards keeping rather than merger.  No need for the administrator deletion tool in either eventuality, though. Uncle G (talk) 11:11, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. Sufficient references available to meet WP:GNG. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:35, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep per all above. Referencing in India can be a bit of challenge. Not a reson to delete or nominate all Indian railway stations. This one is relatively well referenced. gidonb (talk) 01:37, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
