uh, wtf is this prod template? why is there no AFD where I can air my objections? why is there not rationale beyond a link to WP:NOT? where am I supposed to object to these deletions? Modest Genius ^talk 00:29, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merge discussion[edit]

I propose the article be merged with Theatre Royal, Nottingham.

The rationale behind the merge is, first that this article is a strong AFD candiate. It's just a tram stop; there's not a lot that could be written about it, it has no notability and the article has no references. Some of the near identical articles about Nottingham Tram Stops have been deleted for that reason.

Secondly, merging would keep it in line with other Nottingham Tram Stops. The tram stops are not deserving of their own article because there is not enough to write about; but they sit very comfortably as a section within the articles of the places they serve. This already happens with other Nottingham Tram Stops - For Example: Old Market Square tram stop redirects to the article about the Old Market Square and the tram stop has its own section within that article. The same happens with The Forest tram stop which redirects to a section within the Forest Recreation Ground. Both work well and are a better approach than the current empty unreferenced article.

Agree. 88.104.100.184 (talk) 19:58, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree. There is plenty to write about this tram stop. Merging information about a piece of transport infrastructure with information about a theatre seems, to my mind, bizarre in the extreme. In any case, this is the Royal Centre tram stop, not the Theatre Royal tram stop, and it serves much more than just the Theatre Royal. To be frank, I'd be amazed if as many as 1 in 100 passengers at the stop were travelling to or from the Theatre. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 16:27, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
