[edit] Godavari Express

An article that lists the stops for a train along its route. Non-notable listcruft. Valrith 04:07, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Neutral Route has had a semi-famous crash: [1], so article could be minor snark material. The name seems to be understood in that part of the world as common knowledge. - Richfife 04:40, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, article asserts no notability whatsoever. If it's had a crash, then that could be mentioned, but currently it's pure listcruft. JIP | Talk 10:26, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep It's a stub within Category:Named passenger trains of India and this express service is certainly cited by name often enough for that, including national-level media coverage. --Mereda 10:36, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep This service is just as notable as other named passenger trains, the article is part of the ongoing work of the Trains and India WikiProjects. Slambo (Speak) 11:57, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Article asserts that this is a famous Indian passenger train and has a reference. That speaks louder than the nom's claim. --JJay 15:04, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment So assertion is now being treated as equivalent to fact? What an interesting development. I suppose this means there's no longer any need for references to reliable sources, notability standards etc. Tripe. Valrith 04:09, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
      • Comment. Hm. I deliberately cited The Hindu as a reference when I deprodded it earlier. Mereda 10:10, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - famous railway, notable.Bakaman Bakatalk 23:25, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - I don't even understand why this has been nominated. Any named passenger train is sufficiently notable for Wikipedia. - Axver 00:33, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete unless expanded The article gives no info about the trains history, its significance, its effect to the local economy in the stations it stops. It is just a list of where it stops. The article is just not encyclopedic. It has to give more info like The Ghan or the Rajdhani Express --Ageo020 (talk • contribs • count) 02:22, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
