The usual procedure for overlay area codes has been to have one article for both the original and the overlay area code. I've renamed the article for 801 to include 385, so the article on 385 should be deleted.WikiBrown 11:27, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 11:21, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Moreover, both the article and the KSL link the article references are inaccurate. Phone users in the 435 area code (St. George, for example) will be unaffected--they will not be included in the 385 area code, and they will continue with 7-digit dialing.

 * Comment Fixed link to point to the actual article. Can't believe we were having a theoretical discussion about a page that doesn't exist. DMacks 13:38, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge & redirect into Area code 801/385 (i.e., not outright delete). Seems like overlay-codes get a unified page, with redirects from each individual one (example: Area code 410 and Area code 443 both redirect to Area codes 410 and 443). DMacks 15:24, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge/redirect into Area code 801/385, in case anyone is looking specifically for area code 385. --Elkman (Elkspeak) 16:13, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - personally I don't see why we should have area code articles at all, except for those few that have some sort of specific and notable cultural impact. Having a list of area codes is sufficient enough.  That said, since there appears to be consensus that such things ought to be kept, a merge per above is the best way to go. ɑʀкʏɑɴ 16:30, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge/redirect into Area code 801. Area codes are notable, but there's nothing here that shouldn't be combined with 801. Alansohn 20:10, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Note that Area code 801 is actually just a redirect to Area code 801/385. DMacks 20:52, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Area code 801/385. Resolute 00:16, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
