- Merge/redirect to List of demolished piers in Hong Kong per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion. I found passing mentions in a search for the English name here and here. The pier's Chinese name is (traditional Chinese: 威利麻街碼頭; simplified Chinese: 威利麻街码头). There are a few sentences of coverage in this book.
A redirect with the history preserved under the redirect will allow editors to selectively merge any content that can be reliably sourced to the target article. A redirect with the history preserved under the redirect will allow the redirect to be undone if significant coverage in reliable sources is found in the future.
