VFD nom for Burren Junction, Collarenebri
[edit]This article has no see and do. One pub and that's all. Created by KevRobbAU, who has now left, it was created quite a while back. There's no town nearby, and it's sort of those towns that have no industries.
And while I appreciate that we don't delete real places, there is no town nearby. And Walgett is an hour away, and a traveller won't search this up - because there's nothing but a few houses and a pub/bar. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | en.wikipedia) 11:55, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
Edit 1: I'm also nominating Collarenebri, as this has a same issue - large area, no see, do or even sleep. And the listing is far away, which is pointless.
I would opt for speedy deletion x2. The article's single listing isn't located anywhere near Burren Junction.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 12:07, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Burren Junction It now has three local listings, and I have removed the listing for the visitor centre miles away. AlasdairW (talk) 21:31, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
- Keep both, per AlasdairW and W:Collarenebri which states "There are many [Aboriginal] artefacts and significant sites along the Barwon River [...] there are some very old aboriginal carved trees [...] [and] a well maintained Aboriginal cemetery just outside the town which is unique to the area, with graves covered in crushed and melted glass and decorated with items that represent that person.[...] Many of the buildings in Collarenebri today date back to c. 1910. As below, these articles just need the right person to come along and develop them.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 11:16, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
- That's for retired KevRobbSCO, or I might improve them, if I find the right location. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | en.wikipedia) 11:19, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
- Keep both, but is there no possibility of merging Collarenebri with another article for now, by making it a longer entry in "Go next"? We've sometimes done such things. Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:18, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- It could be merged with Mungindi, which is only about a 100km drive. Not too far away SHB2000 (talk | contribs | en.wikipedia) 08:58, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
- Outcome: kept.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 08:19, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
