Not much ban be found about this. No 3p sources. Too soon; I think. — Hahc21 [ TALK ]  [  CONTRIBS  ] 04:57, 15 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Speedy Keep Absurd nomination as sources are quite easy to find, e.g. Citibank Pays to Put Name on Shared Bikes. The scheme seems very similar to London's Barclays Cycle Hire and for a major city like this, notability is certain. Warden (talk) 18:02, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Speedy keep - Plenty of "3p" sources, which are very in-depth to boot.  It took me less than five seconds to find all of these.  Don't know how the nom came to the conclusion of no "3p" sources.  You need to follow WP:BEFORE before making such a claim.--Oakshade (talk) 00:27, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment - The nominator is reminded that AfD is not for cleanup. - The Bushranger One ping only 07:19, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep or Speedy keep The first Google search page reveals a 7 May 2012 article from the NY Times, which identifies this program as, "...New York’s much anticipated bike-sharing program..."  Speedy keep criteria are #1 and #2, "fails to advance an argument for deletion", and "The nomination was unquestionably...disruption".  Unscintillating (talk) 12:02, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - Topic is surely notable enough for the paragraphs that have long stood in Bicycle sharing system and Cycling in New York City. 3rd party news coverage is ample. The question that remains is whether the material in those articles should be consolidated here, or consolidated in one of those and this article should redirect there.

 * Keep - WP:SNOW it clearly has WP:RS as noted above. The Determinator  p  t  c  15:31, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
