Good evening,
I, too, recently ran across the India Street Station (Portland, Maine) article, and I was thinking the same thing you were thinking. I did a little snooping, and it turns out that an identical article (under a different name) was created by the same editor, and it ended up being speedily deleted because it didn't meet the various criteria. See here for more info: Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Grand_Trunk_Terminal_Project_(Portland,_Maine)
With that in mind, I would certainly agree that the new article ought to be nominated for deletion, seeing as how it's almost a verbatim copy of the other article that was deleted.
I'm also concerned that the editor who created these two articles has been uploading images for which he/she does not have permission to use. Take a look at some of his/her image contributions and I think you'll see what I mean. (Some of those images I know I've seen in the local newspapers...)
Thanks,

Yeah, that probably needs to go through TfD. – Juliancolton | Talk 04:10, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for vandalism-fighting! However, your message to Bavlard came over an hour after s/he had vandalised, and an hour after s/he had been warned for it (the warning was in the {{ welcometest}} note I left him/her). No harm in that, but we try not warn more than once and try not to warn long after the vandalism in question. Also, you didn't sign your message. Keep up the fight against vandalism! ➲ redvers throwing my arms around Paris 14:35, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi Jim. Inre this AfD, I have been able to source the article to show meeting WP:ENTERTAINER. Its late, and past my bedtime... but I believe per this that the article can easily be further expanded and sourced. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 08:57, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

As a member of the Aviation WikiProject or one of its subprojects, you may be interested in testing your skills in the Aviation Contest! I created this contest, not to pit editor against editor, but to promote article improvement and project participation and camraderie. Hopefully you will agree with its usefulness. Sign up here, read up on the rules here, and discuss the contest here. The first round of the contest may not start until September 1st-unless a large number of editors signup and are ready to compete immediately! Since this contest is just beginning, please give feedback here, or let me know what you think on my talkpage. - Trevor MacInnis contribs 00:46, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
A few of the links I put in are
'RED',
perhaps '
somebody' with
experience in this area needs to write an article or two.
The
U.S. National Aerobatic Championships seems notable. Happy
St. Pats Day!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current
Arbitration Committee election. The
Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia
arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose
site bans,
topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The
arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to
review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on
the voting page. For the Election committee,
