The result was redirect to Bay Ridge Branch. The question of what information about the station should be incorporated over at the target can be dealt with outside AfD. (non-admin closure)Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 18:41, 4 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Created by a sockpuppet. A G5 CSD attempt was opposed by another editor, so here we are. This station is not notable, existing refs come nowhere close to meeting GNG, and I haven't found much of anything from a BEFORE search. The outcome here should be a redirect to Bay Ridge Branch, but as that would certainly be contested, I am nominating the article for deletion.

  • Merge a nice subsection perhaps for former railway stations in the main article about the railway; it closed 100 yrs ago and likely won't get much more notable these days. I don't find much beyond fan-sites for rail nerds such as myself. Oaktree b (talk) 20:07, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Bay Ridge Branch#Former stations. Clear GNG fail, and there doesn't seem to be any relevant information available other than the open/close dates already in that table. Myrtle Avenue station (LIRR Bay Ridge Branch) should also be deleted for the same reasons (save for G5 ineligibility, as it was created by a legitimate user.)

  • Redirect per above. XtraJovial (talkcontribs) 18:02, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per Oaktree b. We have a small amount of verifiable encyclopaedic information, we don't have enough to sustian an article but there is no reason to remove the information when there is a clearly appropriate merge target. Thryduulf (talk) 09:34, 4 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
