  • Akihabara Station This is more a request for comment than a vote for deletion. All these stations being added may be somebody's labor of love - but do we really want to (potentially) list every train station in the world? If so, we will need a lot more hardware. Anjouli 14:07, 6 Dec 2003 (UTC)
    • Delete -- unless something encyclopedic can be written about it. Is there something remarkable about this train station? Tempshill 19:17, 6 Dec 2003 (UTC)
    • Keep. We have lots of articles about UK train and tube stations, for example. More useful than all the articles about Pokemon, in my opinion.Secretlondon
    • Keep. I agree with secretlondon that I'd rather see an article on every train station in the world than an article on every trading card in the world. Onebyone 19:40, 6 Dec 2003 (UTC)
    • I'm the original author of the article mentioned here. This is one of the 29 stations on Tokyo's Yamanote line, which is a central orientation point in Tokyo. It's as relevant or irrelevant as e.g. Tottenham_Court_Road_tube_station.

Japanese Wikipedia is trying to complete about 10,000 stations in Japan. In fact, Japanese Wikipedia looks an encyclopedia of railway, manga and other subcultures for me. --Nanshu 01:56, 7 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Keep - Akihabara is the electronic capital of the world!! Somebody should add a map, instructions on how to get there and then delete all this vote junk.

    • Keep. Railway stations are quite encyclopedic. Alot of websites and books do write about indivisual stations. Tbo 157talk 15:48, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
