Unsourced since 2011, absolutely no notability. Lists of highway strips are not common place on Wikipedia Ajf773 (talk) 08:37, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Unreferenced. As a list it may be notable, but as written, this is pure WP:OR. It could be a hoax, or not, how are we supposed to tell? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:56, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Absolutely unreferenced, therefore can't be trusted as a reliable and encyclopedic article. EggRoll97 ^(talk) 13:06, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Non-notable topics, merely strips of highway known to be possible to land a plane on in an emergency. No third-party sources. Reywas92^Talk 00:02, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Sources WP:NEXIST, though finding reliable sources online may not be easy. The Polish Wikipedia article on highway strips [1] states that there are 21 highway strips in Poland, and it has a reference for one, which could certainly be added to this list [2]. The English Wikipedia article Highway strip has a list of highway strips in Switzerland (8), and names the 3 highway strips in Cyprus in the para on that country. For Sweden, there are links to separate articles Bas 60 and Bas 90, which contain lists of highway strips. So as far as WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, highway strips are covered in various ways in Wikipedia. The main question with this list for Poland seems to me to be sourcing. There are other sources online, eg [3] which seems to be on a website for pilots, and may not be considered reliable, I don't know. This is another source about the highway strips in general, with some specific ones mentioned [4] - again, I find it hard to know what is reliable of the various Polish media I find. But I am sure that reliable sources would exist, even if they are not online. IF this list is not kept as a separate article, I recommend merging it into Highway_strip#Poland. (I do wonder whether anyone has done WP:BEFORE. AfD is not about the state of sourcing in the article, but about what sources exist, so being unreferenced is not a reason to delete!)

Delete per nom. Per WP:SALAT, "The number of possible lists is limited only by our collective imagination. To keep the system of lists useful, we must limit the size and topic of lists." Clarityfiend (talk) 23:50, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
