Wrexham & Shropshire Route (diagram)
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This is a confusing one. It started life as Wrexham & Shropshire Route. It was put for deletion. The consensus was for merge with Wrexham & Shropshire. Well Gwen Gale felt as though there wasn't enough content to merge with the main article, so she deleted it. Well just before the first AfD started, Mpvide65 created a template (Template:Wrexham & Shropshire Route) that contained the information that was in the route article. On July 4th, that template was nominated for deletion. Mpvide65 then immediately moved the template to Wrexham & Shropshire Route (diagram). So now we're basically back where we started. I ran into this because I was about to delete the template per a template for deletion. This Wrexham & Shropshire Route (diagram) article actually has less content than the original deleted article had. It's still essentially just a template with a very small lead paragraph. I don't personally have an opinion here. I'm just presenting this because this needs to be resolved one way or another. --WoohookittyWoohoo! 07:07, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - all the info here is duplicated in Wrexham & Shropshire. - Richard Cavell (talk) 07:10, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Forgot to mention that if this is deleted the template needs to be deleted as well. Right now it exists as just a redirect at Template:Wrexham & Shropshire Route. --WoohookittyWoohoo! 07:11, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. The outcome at TfD for the template was delete; the creation of this article seems to be a blatant attempt to sidestep such a decision, not to mention an earlier AfD concensus. In any case, we certainly don't need a whole article for a train route diagram. PC78 (talk) 11:16, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete under WP:CSD (recreation of deleted material) per PC78 (assuming Woohookitty is correct about its being essentially the same). Olaf Davis | Talk 17:43, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
