Very minor incident that is extremely unlikely to have any lasting notability. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 13:59, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~ per WP:NEWS. Although fatal train derailments can be notable (and some non-fatal terror attacks that result in derailment can be as well), this wouldn't be historically notable in any location on earth under the circumstances described. Mandsford 16:37, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Not much of a news story. It doesn't belong here. The Pebble Dare (talk) 17:27, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge the salvageable content to List of Indian rail accidents and Delete per WP:NOT#NEWS. utcursch | talk 08:47, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of Indian rail accidents and List of rail accidents (2010–2019). Mjroots (talk) 11:01, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment should this prove to be sabotage then due consideration should be given to recreation. Mjroots (talk) 09:09, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of Indian rail accidents and List of rail accidents (2010–2019) per Mjroots. ----DanTD (talk) 12:01, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete but don't merge as its not notable enough for the aforementioned lists either ! GrahamHardy (talk) 16:41, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
"Unlikely to have any lasting notability" sounds like speculation. There is to be a inquiry according to this and this, while sabotage has not been ruled out by the railway ministry. Suspected sabotage. 14 coaches derailing at once seems quite unusual. This says helpline numbers had to be set up. Statutory enquiry to be conducted/different versions of events/cancelled trains. --can dle •wicke 04:48, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and merge While not notable by itself, the accident seems significant enough to be included in the List of Indian rail accidents. --RegentsPark (talk) 12:58, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge I agree (and no redirect necessary). The list of accidents is a good mix of accidents for which we have an article, and other accidents that don't have an article (whether they "deserve" one or not). For now, I'd remove brackets from any red links on the list. I suppose that someone could sort through those lists and eliminate the ones that aren't blue links, but it would be quickly reverted, since there's no rational reason to censor the contents of a list of accidents.

Delete and merge, merge without a redirect? Are these statements not ever so slightly contradictory? --can dle •wicke 01:35, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see why the statements are contradictory. All they imply is that the incident is not noteworthy of an article of its own but it merits a line in another article. Almost all content in this encyclopedia fits that description. --RegentsPark (talk) 02:25, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This may need to be reviewed, given that a train was derailed by Maoists in the area today, the above accident may also turn out to be their work. Therefore I'd like to propose that this AfD be extended for a week to allow time for further facts to appear. Mjroots (talk) 05:29, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
keep and improve - it can be added. Lots of articles like this exist, with less casualties and relevance. Heck, the 2 Naxal attacks in Dantewada have seperate articles when 1 would suffice. (Lihaas (talk) 06:46, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge we cannot allow articles on every NN crash. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:38, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of Indian rail accidents and List of rail accidents (2010–2019), per Mjroots, and (or) perhaps merge into Rajdhani Express.--Pink Bull 16:42, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
