Starburst_Intersection – ~~Socks~~(excuse me, brand new accounts that just happen to stumble on DRV and know how to file one) don't have standing. No question raised about the close, no reason to review. Star Mississippi 17:54, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

This location is notable, and is frequently referenced by locals, news sources, and even the local government in official documents as the "Starburst Intersection", and not by the roads that feed into it. While the article could be improved, it should not have been deleted.— Preceding unsigned comment added by EVeracite (talk • contribs) 03:42, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

Speedy endorse. Deletion review is a venue to address failures to follow the deletion process. It is not a place to raise, or re-raise, arguments that could have been made at the AFD. Stifle (talk) 08:20, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
Speedy endorse. We are not debating how we should name the article about this intersection. The article does not exist because it was deleted, and it was deleted because the subject is not notable, as identified in the AfD. Being able to say that people call this intersection "Starburst Intersection" does nothing. Moreover, when looking at the linked document, it does not even come as true that this intersection has the proper name of "Starburst Intersection". It talks about a particular intersection by referring to the intersecting roads ("the starburst intersection of 15th and H Street with Benning, Bladensburg, Maryland, and Florida Roads") and only describes its shape as "starburst". The document then mostly refers to the intersection as "the startburst intersection at [end of road X or similar]". In maybe two places, it then uses the phrase "starburst intersection", in particular contexts, without naming the roads, when it's clear that it refers to the previously mentioned starburst-shape intersection, but the words are not capitalized. At the same time, at least one source mentioned in the AfD actually gave the intersection the kind-of-proper-name of "Starburst intersection" (first word capitalized), and there was still consensus to delete. —Alalch E. 09:33, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
Endorse There was nothing wrong with the close of the deletion discussion. I would like to add the caveat that there's no reason this article can't be re-created if better sourcing can be found. It's just not quite there at the moment. SportingFlyer T·C 13:50, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
