County Route 97 (Rockland County, New York)[edit]

Article does not comply with Wikipedia:Notability (highways) Andy 1One (talk) 22:38, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge - I am the ORIGINAL author of these articles who gathered the pics and did all the field work. User:Mitchazenia has been very helpful in bringing in history and bringing things up to Wiki standards. If it were up to me, all routes would have their own page, but considering some routes don't, I don't see why this one should stand alone while others don't. It is a hidden one-mile route. --Airtuna08 (talk) 23:50, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

And from what I see most of the information already exists on the main page. Mitch, why don't you add some brief history to CR 97 on the main list. It certainly doesn't need a "junction list" section. --Airtuna08 (talk) 23:54, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge-Even though I proposed deletion, I believe the article should be merged. It is pretty much a redundant article. Andy 1One (talk) 00:02, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

AFD isn't for discussing merges. If you feel the article should be merged, you should have discussed it on a relevant talk page. –Juliancolton ^Tropical ^Cyclone 00:52, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I guess I am bull. I wrote on the nominators talk page that I have more info for it, yet he wants to AFD/merge it anyway. I guess you can kill me.Mitch32^{(Go Syracuse)} 00:49, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Airtuna, I have about 2 pages worth of history that I need to get out of it, there is more info, the article is not finished.Mitch32^{(Go Syracuse)} 00:52, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you had more information, why didn't you add it before? Andy 1One (talk) 01:15, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request to closing admin - Can you give User:Mitchazenia a couple days to update the history he has to the page before making a final decision? Curious to see if that will change things. --Airtuna08 (talk) 05:40, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

AfDs last for around five days, so he has a while. –Juliancolton ^Tropical ^Cyclone 05:41, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have to get the book, which will take a few days, and then add it all.Mitch32^{(Go Syracuse)} 10:52, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - An editor is in the process of making improvements of the article (Wikipedia has no deadline) and it appears to be notable per sources. --Oakshade (talk) 03:12, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Premature nomination. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 09:30, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Seems like this information has been on Wiki awhile. Don't know how it's a premature AfD by Andy. But how is a one-mile, county route that is hidden from 99.999999999% of the public notable? --GroundhogTheater (talk) 17:49, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
