It's a bus stop - what next telephone boxes? Fredrick day 11:51, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Note This listing was incomplete. It is listed now. --Seed 2.0 12:29, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, no show of any sort of notability. J Milburn 14:02, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, per J Milburn, and also that the article is borderline close to failing CSD criteria A1 and A3. No signifact Google hits for the specific stop, either. Evilclown93 14:54, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Question. Why are train stations notable, but bust stops are not? -- Mikeblas 15:31, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Answer Because a bus stop is a sign on a post. A train station is a major piece of infrastructure costing tens of millions of dollars and lasting 100 years or longer. Many train stations are also notable because of their architecture or due to historical events that have taken place there. -- Charlene 20:18, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, no evidence of notability. Answer: not all train stations are notable and perhaps this bus stop could be, but the article's got to prove it.  Otherwise we'll have thousands of individual articles about the location of bus stops, which is just a duplicate of the hundreds of public transportation websites and Wikipedia is not a directory.

 * Delete (perhaps speedily, since it makes no claim of notability).  semper fictilis 22:03, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, absolutely no notability.  *Cremepuff 222*  01:33, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Why wasn't this speedily deleted?  RFerreira 06:35, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * 'There is little need for deletion - why not expand on the subject?'
 * em with what? --Fredrick day 10:08, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Answer to Previous Comment - The bus stop is a gateway to a unique environment of Pitshanger Village - which has survived the onslaught of supermarkets. There is a great scope for further expansion, which will surely follow.
 * Please sign your posts - so what you are saying is it requires a line on an article about pitshanger village not the other way around. --Fredrick day 10:14, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * 'The bus stop is the gateway - both online and in the village itself.'


 * Delete -- a non-notable bus stop. - Longhair\talk 10:17, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete An individual bus stop one out of so many similar copies that it won't be notable. However, a bus terminal may be notable enough.--Kylohk 17:04, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
