Very borderline, but I think this doesn't meet WP:GNG and definitely doesn't meet WP:GEOFEAT. I've added what I can but it has no official historic status and the refs I could find were just list mentions. Boleyn (talk) 05:44, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to ~~Big Walnut Creek~~ List of covered bridges in Indiana, ~~which presently has no mention of this historic covered bridge that crosses the creek.~~ This will improve the merge target article, as per WP:ATD-M. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 05:51, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nb. Struck my initial merge target idea above and changed to the List of covered bridges in Indiana article. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 17:27, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge/Redirect to List of covered bridges in Indiana. The "Location" section which takes up most of the article is unhelpful original research and would be better if it was just a set of coordinates. In general, bridge articles that consist primarily of location and specification data are better covered as part of a list. –dlthewave ☎ 18:10, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge/redirect List of covered bridges in Indiana is probably a better destination. Reywas92^Talk 18:53, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of covered bridges in Indiana as there is nothing in the article of substance which isn't already in the list. Mangoe (talk) 17:39, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as above. Note I did not say just redirect because the article has sources for the info in the list article that is unsourced there, so there should be a minimal merge to keep the sources. MB 04:28, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
