The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete British rail Locomotive 02 001 and British Rail Locomotive 02 004. I put less weight on the merge suggestions given that it is pointed out there are no reliable sources and noting the input from Thryduulf. British Rail Locomotive 02 003 should be discussed separately. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 14:26, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not independently notable. No reliable sources, only photographs. Cannot find a source that is actually about this individual locomotive, as opposed to the type as a whole (there were 20 locomotives of this type). Black Kite (talk) 11:30, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • I am also nominating the following related pages because they have effectively the same issue:
British Rail Locomotive 02 004 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

I suggest we also include British Rail Locomotive 02 003 in this merging process. For good order, I also suggest we get a commitment from a specialist in Wikipedia:WikiProject_Trains to carry out the merge appropriately. RomanSpa (talk) 15:58, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There is nothing at the articles about 001 or 004 that is all of reliably sourced, useful and not already in the British Rail Class 02 article. Thryduulf (talk) 16:18, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks to Thryduulf for the specialist input! RomanSpa (talk) 17:07, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - if there is anything notable about an individual locomotive then mention it on the class page.Davidvaughanwells (talk) 15:51, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as others have said. Flickr seems like a WP:USERGENERATED to me. -Kj cheetham (talk) 22:04, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Additional note There's also British Rail Locomotive 02 003 which was boldly redirected by Fram. I don't think it's worthwhile keeping that in either form so should be deleted with the rest. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 21:21, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I'd rather that one was discussed separately as, as an article, it was in much different shape to these two and is preserved so it has greater potential notability - some preserved locos are individually notable, and there is a greater chance of sources (although I've not looked to see if there are any). Thryduulf (talk) 22:10, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Aye, that one should be done separately, it's not as obviously NN as these two. Black Kite (talk) 23:25, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
