I believe this Kennet and Avon Canal Lock article does not meet
WP:GNG (
WP:NBUILD), as there is no significant source coverage directly addressing the individual Lock available. I believe there is little possible notable information to include, and therefore the article is not worthy of inclusion on Wikipedia. The information in this article is also duplicated in
List of locks on the Kennet and Avon Canal (Grid Ref/Listed Building/Rise or Fall are all part of this
table - hence deletion of this article would not result in any loss of information anyway).
I am also separately nominating the following Locks for deletion as well - however I will nominate them individually, as it is possible some may have more notability or be deemed worthy of keeping for a different reason and may hence deserve their own AfD discussion (as per
WP:MULTIAFD).
(list removed - too many template transclusions. 18th March log page is broken)

Note: I believe some Locks on the Kennet and Avon Canal are notable, and therefore I have not included those pages which I believe meet
WP:GNG in an AfD.
Thank you for your consideration and comments.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep Clearly
Mxtt.prior accepts that a canal lock can be notable. There are going to be reliable sources for each of them, and in this case someone has created a family of pages on the locks of the K&A canal, which could become quite a useful resource. It isn’t particularly useful for now, except for the photos, but they are still good things to have. I should say add {{refimprove}} tags and give them a few years to develop, review again in due course.
