- Hello Helo Cremastra! I have seen your message earlier about the deletion of the page.
- I deeply apologize for not including sources to the locomotive's page, if anything, i'll do more research of the locomotive for references, sources, etc. And rewrite alot of stuff in the page if mostly everything is inaccurate.
- If no sources of sorts are found, then i'll gladly help you to delete the page.
- Cheers and Happy Easter! Christian40213 (talk) 15:10, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
- Update: Research has been done,and alot has been changed!
- If it isn't enough, i'll gladly research more :p Christian40213 (talk) 15:56, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Christian40213 (Happy Easter to you, too). Thanks for your work! Unfortunately, Wikipedia's policies of "notability" are somewhat stringent. I've looked at the sources you added to the article and made a table:
Source assessment table:
| ||||
Source | Independent? | Reliable? | Significant coverage? | Count source toward GNG? |
---|---|---|---|---|
TrainChasers.com | No apparent connection to the subject | ? Fan site, reliability unclear (see WP:SELFPUB) | Article is entirely about the train. | ? Unknown |
California State Railroad Museum | No apparent connection to the subject | Probably, respectable museum | Detailed coverage of the subject | ✔ Yes |
This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor. Created using {{source assess table}}. |
- Because WP:GNG requires multiple, reliable sources, notability remains... unclear. It's best to let other editors weigh in, and the discussion will be closed in seven days (or more, if we can't agree). Don't worry about it, there are lots of new users to Wikipedia and I'm happy to help. Cheers, 🌺 Cremastra (talk) 16:20, 31 March 2024 (UTC)

- Hey hey,thanks for the heads up!
- I did a bit more digging and found 2 more reliable sites on which they talked about the locomotive, one had a very,very summarized version of the story,which added a bit more, and the other was a railways news forum that talked about her being out of service and her getting restored back in 1996
- I'll do a more extense research tomorrow

- Keep I added four new reliable sources to the article - two newspaper articles and two books. I believe these, along with the CSM source, now meet the general notability guidelines. Opolito (talk) 02:53, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Leaning keep per improvements by Opolito. BD2412 T 15:57, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: With the newspaper stories added, should be at notability now. Rest looks fine. Oaktree b (talk) 16:22, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: The newspaper sources and book sources, along with coverage provided by the museum, seem fine in establishing notability to me. StreetcarEnjoyer (talk) 19:22, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
