Coowrold is not a valid authority on the structure of the railway system or the various namings  JarrahTree 09:34, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: George Ho's relisting comment is unfortunately how relists are done at RM, it's to do with the bot reading the timestamp. I agree it does look confusing. Note I've had to do the same thing to relist it again. Jenks24 (talk) 09:41, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

message: Since Windmill Hill Cutting seems to be reliant on one source, is a stub, and likely lacks notability, I propose merging it into the main article Eastern Railway (Western Australia). As far as I'm aware, no other railway cutting articles exist anywhere else in Australia, and I've only seen articles for notable bridges and tunnels. Fork99 (talk) 10:16, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Support. I can't imagine any way this cutting is notable. There can't be very many sources on it. Steelkamp (talk) 10:18, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Ahhh, sprung chuckens one and all. At the time of creation it was a very big 'token' deepest cutting in oz - and every railway enthusiast alive in the late 60s and early 70s wanted to have taken a photo of something in the cutting. Judgements are always useful way to try to assert notability (or lack of it), the wheatbelt of western australia is alive with such features, where at the time they seemed important, however the meaning and context is not something subsequently easily found 'online'.

text: There are many inclines, cuttings, and embankments in the australian railway world that have been given names and appellations by drivers and railway people in general, just because there is a paucity does not mean there is not room on wikipedia for such items - it is the editor with access to materials that is the short answer as to why articles do not exist.
