I don't have time to do anything myself right now, but "unsourced" does not equate to "unsourceable", but generally the following should be merged if not already covered by the target article: location, key dates (e.g. opening), previous names (if any), the line it's on, services, the area and/or
451:
I'm aware of that. But the fact that the article is unsourced means that the existence of sources can't be taken for granted. I should think it's incumbent on those of you claiming that there is attributable information to be salvaged to demonstrate that reliable sources exist.
279:
It means that it should not be deleted. If it passes the GNG then it should have an article, if it doesn't then it should be merged (and, implicitly, redirected) to the article about the line or system. This is why I prefixed my comment "keep or merge" not "keep".
266:, but what consensus? The section you link to is awkwardly written ("It may be considered that..."??) but it does explicitly say "For ... stations on metro, light rail, ... if insufficient source material is available for a comprehensive article, 224:). I don't believe this light rail station is notable, and there are no sources in the article to bolster any claim to notability. There's no question that the system as a whole is notable, but individual stations are rather 181: 414:
insufficient source material is available for a comprehensive article, it is better to mention the station in an article about the line or system that the station is on." In this instance, there is sufficient material.

270:." (Emphasis mine.) That doesn't in any way imply that all rail stations are presumptively notable. On the contrary, it clearly points out that station articles must pass the GNG. Does this one? 175: 471: 134: 245: 491: 107: 102: 111: 141: 94: 221: 196: 163: 17: 157: 98: 503: 483: 456: 446: 432: 423: 399: 390: 373: 369: 356: 336: 313: 298: 289: 274: 257: 235: 76: 55: 153: 69: 523: 225: 40: 203: 410: 90: 82: 428:
That's an interesting assertion. Where is this attributable information? The article attributes no sources.
