South Nyack station

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable. Unsourced. Can't find any sources. Article was created by a sock without significant changes to content since. Compare: "South Nyack was a railroad station on the Erie Railroad Northern Branch in South Nyack, New York. The station was closed in 1966 and was razed that year. Proposals have been made to restore service on the Northern Branch via the Hudson Bergen Light Rail." to: "South Nyack was a railroad station on the Erie Railroad Northern Branch in South Nyack, New York. The station was closed in 1966 and was razed that year. Proposals have been made to restore service on the Northern Branch via the Hudson Bergen Light Rail." and yet speedy deletion under WP:G5 was declined, hence the nomination.

 * Delete as nominator. The stats tool isn't counting my !vote for some reason. Strike if tool starts functioning properly. Septrillion (talk) 01:50, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
 * That's odd! If I strike it says no votes, and yet if it's unstruck, it's counted as a duplicate. Keeping it unstruck so it's counted. Septrillion (talk) 01:52, 27 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Note. As nominator, you will already have 1 vote in Afd. And I suggest you put all the information under the nomination rather than under discussion. In addition, it is not the number of votes that count, the consensus counts. Plus, I think page creation protection for sockpuppetry may be needed if deleted --Quek157 (talk) 10:32, 27 April 2018 (UTC) (edited as at --Quek157 (talk) 10:37, 27 April 2018 (UTC))(further edited --Quek157 (talk) 12:22, 27 April 2018 (UTC))(further edited --Quek157 (talk) 18:03, 27 April 2018 (UTC))

 * Duplicate !vote struck as the tool appears to be functioning properly. Septrillion (talk) 12:28, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Just take note that nominators for Afd do not need to vote, your proposal for deletion is considered a vote for delete already. Cheers --Quek157 (talk) 14:08, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, but there was a glitch in the AfD stats tool, hence the "duplicate" vote to correct it. Septrillion (talk) 21:28, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

 * I've consulted an Official Guide and South Nyack did exist as described on the Erie-Lackawanna's Northern Branch. As a disused railway station the topic is probably notable. An article is possible; compare Tenafly station and Piermont station on the same line. Those buildings still stand, though. In the absence of expansion a redirect to Northern Branch. Mackensen (talk) 11:25, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Found and added sources for its closure and eventual demolition. Weak keep; failing that, redirect. Mackensen (talk) 16:51, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
 * comment The Hudson River Valley Heritage site has this photo and a period postcard showing the station. It wouldn't meet my standard for retention but given that we've had people successfully argue that a station consisting of nothing but platforms and a location was notable, I expect this to survive.
