Disputed draftification. Immediate return to mainspace. I am not persuaded that this passes WP:GEOLAND. References are not of significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 10:53, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete nothing we can use, it's not a historic bus stop and isn't covered in anything we can use. Oaktree b (talk) 19:37, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It is not to delete — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mannuseemu (talk • contribs) 12:13, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete there may be sources in Rajasthani or Hindi to show notability, but being mentioned in a bunch of travel guides isn’t enough. Mccapra (talk) 13:21, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Fails WP:GNG. Bus Stands are very common in India and there are more than 5 bus stands in every districts of India. 𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐭𝟕𝟐𝟖🧙‍♂️^{Let's Talk !} 16:03, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete—fails WP:GNG and GEOLAND wouldn't apply. Imzadi 1979 → 19:26, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Raikabag Palace Junction railway station, which is across the street from the bus stand. Jumpytoo Talk 04:51, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Jodpur#Transportation. This is clearly an important part of the public transport infrastructure of the city but there are insufficient sources to demonstrate independent notability. I don't oppose merging to the railway station (this is much preferable to deletion), but think that the city article is the better target. Thryduulf (talk) 10:44, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Jodhpur#Transportation. It's disappointing that a city the size of Jodhpur with a population of over a million appears not to have sufficient reliable sources to substantiate an article on its main bus station. The fact that it's mentioned in many guidebooks gives it importance, but the mentions tell us nothing about its construction, history, passenger numbers etc and little about routes, operators. Sadly, the article image is up for deletion as a possible copyvio. The Raikabag Palace Junction railway station is currently PRODed so safer to merge what little there is here to the Jodhpur page than lose everything.

Administrator note: This article could technically qualify for speedy deletion under WP:CSD#G5 because it was created by a user in violation of a block, and the article has no substantial edits by other editors. However, because there have been suggestions to merge the content of the article elsewhere, I will let this AfD continue instead of deleting the article unilaterally.

Delete It is not any different from other bus stops. Fails WP:GNG. NMasiha (talk) 14:42, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
