Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ada-George Road

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Procedural close, speedy keep‎. Malformed nomination per my comment within. With no easily discernible nomination rationale (thus inability to attract editors to form any meaningful consensus), the nomination also has all the appearance of a tit for tat nomination. No prejudice against a well formed, policy rationale based nomination at any time, even immediately. (non-admin closure) 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 07:20, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The subject lacks coverage in independent sources. Only one article with a headline referencing Ada-George road was provided. This doesn't satisfy Wikipedia's GNG. Reference 1 merely mentioned the subject; Ref 2, a 189-word news article mentioned a robbery incident on Ada George Road and didn't cover the road in and of itself; Ref 3 Ada-George was mentioned twice but was not the subject of the article or its content; Ref 4 is about the flagging off of the River's 12th Flyover, located on Ada George. This doesn't confer notability. There's more coverage of the 12th Flyover, than the Ada-George Road. Both are not one and the same." Cfaso2000 (talk) 16:44, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment : A geographic features does not need an independent source to survive as long as they are from reliable source especially on places that are populated by humans. Go and read Notability on Geographic features and what Independent source is all about. Independent source was never mentioned because the government cannot pay the news to talk about a place. Now go and read this Newspaper even tho it wasn’t listed on the article. Further more, Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low. Even abandoned places can be notable, because notability encompasses their entire history. Go and read WP:GEOFEAT. A lot I can tell you per Wikipedia guideline but I feel this is enough for you to pick up from there. I live in Port Harcourt for 5 years and schooled there before I left and thought of writing about it’s place and taken beautiful pictures, that is how I also came about Choba, Port Harcourt and also took the picture you can see there because Wikipedia is knowledge.--Gabriel (……?) 18:48, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  "Topic notability for county roads, regional roads (such as Ireland's regional roads), local roads, streets and motorway service areas may vary, and may be notable if they satisfy the WP:GNG criteria". This is found in WP: GEOFEAT. Ada-George Road has not had wide coverage in secondary sources, and there are only minor mentions of it in news sources you provided. Are there any notable history behind this road? Provide sources please. As it stands, it fails GNG. Cfaso2000 (talk) 19:22, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  From your contribution so far aside from this AFD it’s just a waste of time communicating with you. Until you are familiar and understood the guidelines. I will rather channel that energy to something more reasonable to communicate with except you wanna learn about Wikipedia from me. Read before you throw out lines. Ada-George has nothing to do with County roads, regional roads, local roads, streets or a motor service area. It it’s a town popular known as Ada-George Road. Do you read or you just pop out explanation?. I have check the county road article and the regional road article the images over there has nothing to do with Ada-George. In Ada-George they are houses over there and street because it’s a town but in those article you provide the images shows no houses but a county road that is why they need enough coverage than just a place that is legally recognized. County roads and streets are not legally recognized. For example, Rigasa Railway Station is not a town or a community it’s just like a motorway service area of which you just mention. So it needs enough coverage from reliable source to satisfy WP:GNG. You get my point?. You said There's more coverage of the 12th Flyover, than the Ada-George Road. it is not popular called the 12th flyover but the Ada-George fly over. The Ada-George has being in existence before the fly over and I just pop out a newspaper for you which was published 13 years ago of when the Ada-George was in construction without the flyover to proof it has been in existence. Have a nice day. This is enough explanation for you and I’m ending it here. Cheers. Gabriel (……?) 20:32, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Procedural Close: I am finding this AfD difficult to understand. I do not see a deletion rationale. I suggest a procedural close with no obstacle to re-nomination, even in as short a time period as "immediately" if a policy based rationale is provided. This appears to be a dispute between two editors rather than a real deletion discussion 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 21:03, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
