Contested PROD. Concern was "Not a formal proposal, this is simply WP:CRYSTAL". None of the sources indicate that construction of this station (or even of this route) has been formally authorised. Of the six sources used as references, the first explicitly states "no final decisions have been made", and also says "if a decision is made to progress the scheme, and the necessary funding is secured"; the second states "The exact locations of the new stations ... are as yet undefined ... there could be two new stations along the Old Kent Road (option 1a) or new stations at Camberwell and Peckham Rye (option 1b)"; the third is about a petition; the fourth is about a disagreement between two local councils; the fifth is a dead link; the sixth is a press release about the publication of a summary report for the proposed route. At best, these show that the scheme is at the consultation stage, none of them describe any firm proposals or indicate that funding has been allocated.

  • Merge to Bakerloo line extension. There is a serious possibility that the Bakerloo line extension will bring one or more tube stations to the Old Kent Road, and so the article about the extension should discuss the proposals for it/them. Equally the proposals mean that this is a likely search term, and so it should lead to our content on the subject. However, as all the proposals currently exist in the context of the extension and there is not enough firm to say about individual stations at this stage we only need the one article with redirects.
