The result was redirect to Youd. Pretty clear consensus, particularly since it has already been merged. Dennis Brown - 2&cent; 20:06, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

These are largely unsourced and possibly contains original research. Not a notable name per WP:APONOTE as there are not at least two notable people with the name. -- Tavix ( talk ) 22:09, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete It looks like the page creator may be planning pages for the two people listed. But the process has a way to go.-- Jim in Georgia  Contribs  Talk  19:28, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete or Merge - if there are only 11 people with this surname in all of England, I am going to need some secondary work on the family to show it is noteworthy, and to back up the speculation and Original Research presented. That being said, much of the same material appears on Youd, Youde and Yould all created or heavily edited by the same editor, and all of which have a very small number of Wikilinked family members - it seems to be an unneccesary content-forking multiplication over what are nothing but rare spelling variants.  I think the best solution would be to have a single page that encompasses all of these, probably under the namespace of the most common, Youd.  Such a merged page would still only have a handful of Wikilinked names, and we would avoid having four pages that all repeat the same OR (which would also need to be addressed).

 * On second thought, it is all Original Research plus the same text is already on the other pages so nothing to merge (as per K.e.coffman, below), and we should WP:TNT or stubbify the others to purge them of OR. Agricolae (talk) 23:55, 2 June 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Merge or delete?
 * Delete -- I do not think we can have an article on every surname. If there are several articles on people with that surname we would have a list article.  Peterkingiron (talk) 18:16, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge Yould, Youd, Youde and possibly Eaude, as these are unnecessary content forks apparently based on spelling variation. The article will have enough blue-linked entries to meet WP:APONOTE. Noting the existence of the similarly looking Youds, which according to these articles is unrelated. – Uanfala (talk) 11:14, 29 May 2017 (UTC)
 *  Merge Redirect per Uanfala. Smmurphy(Talk) 18:15, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Change !vote to redirect, nothing to merge, but all should point to Youd, which seems to be the most common modern spelling. Smmurphy(Talk) 00:55, 3 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete per prior comments. There's nothing to merge as the article does not list any RS. K.e.coffman (talk) 19:52, 2 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Merged Youde, Yould and Eaude could now be deleted as I have now merged content into Youd. Will try to address sourcing etc. concerns later, no experience so far, may need some help. I was the original author.
 * In general, if you ever need help, consider asking at the WP:Teahouse or using the template on any talk page. Smmurphy(Talk) 21:53, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
 * If content has been merged, its originating page should not be deleted so as to preserve its attribution info czar  20:32, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Youd. Now that a merge has been performed, we need to preserve the edit history for attribution purposes.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 10:12, 10 June 2017 (UTC).
