[edit] Merge proposal

The intersection Malachi Junction should be merged into this article. Intersections usually lack the notability required to justify an entry and this intersection is located in Kiryat Malakhi, if I'm not mistaken. Tiamuttalk 12:49, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

It's quite possible to expand this entry with verifyable 3rd party information. It's one of the most important bus terminals in the country and an important road junction. Unfortunately, it's also heavily underserviced and has fallen into disrepair despite being used by scores of people daily. The junction is located in the Be'er Tuvia Regional Council, next to Kiryat Mal'akhi. -- Ynhockey (Talk) 15:50, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
The Kiryat Malakhi article notes that Malachi Junction serves as that locality's central bus station. I don't mind retaining this article though if you believe that it is a notable topic and that the article can be expanded. Tiamuttalk 16:49, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Oppose the merge. The Malachi junction (usually called "Qastina junction") is quite far from the Kiryat Malakhi city, and is an important traffic point, with many details irrelevant to Kiryat Malakhi (such as events that happened there, commercial development in the area, and so on). -- Gabi S. (talk) 19:58, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Given Ynhockey's plans to expand this article and his additions, I will remove the merger tag, since I am the only one to have supported its placement there anyway. Tiamuttalk 20:03, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
