[edit] Fort Totten (Washington Metro)

Not notable, while the station certainly exists this article neither establishes notibility, or is interesting in any way. I'm sure I could write a page or two about my local bus stop, however at no point would it even begin to be worthy of inclusion into an encyclopedia. A station that is half underground and half not is NOT notable - delete. (unsigned by 203.164.238.150)

  • Keep. There is a long tradition of making articles for every train station on a metro network. If this is deleted, the other 100 articles on the Washington Metro, not to mention the dozens of articles on the London Underground and the Hong Kong subways, would have to follow suit. --Golbez 04:23, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)
    • It should be noted that the nominator has only 4 edits, 3 of which are this VFD and the other edit is a vandalism. --Golbez 18:30, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep it. Wyss 19:47, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, in keeping with the practice of making articles for every train station, even though I'm not sure I believe it's a good practice. It is established, nevertheless. Katefan0 20:16, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)
  • Obvious keep. Anons cannot vfd, we've had this discussion already. GRider\talk 20:30, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep. One could just as easily make this argument about an unimproved rambot article, or something of that nature. These stations are extremely notable features of their areas, and deserve coverage. Meelar (talk) 00:01, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. All railway stations and other public transport infrastructure are notable.--Centauri 01:35, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
