I-20/59

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This only disambiguates to two articles, and it has a very low page views, averaging less than five views per day for the past year.  Imzadi 1979  →   17:14, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

 * Pageviews and number of entries (if > 1) are irrelevant, but this doesn't make sense as a disambiguation page. I-20/59 does not refer to either the I-20 or the I-59 highway, it refers to an apparently long section that's shared by both (i.e. a concurrency). On at least two occasions in the past editors have created articles on the topic (here's the latest one), and an article certainly makes more sense than a dab page. – Uanfala (talk) 17:40, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak keep for now and revert back to the prior version before the edits made by . As Uanfala mentioned, there has been a substantial article here in the past and the sudden switch to a disambig and then AFD seems unwise to me. Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 18:11, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete or convert to disambiguation as a neologism. --Rschen7754 03:22, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to one or the other road, or perhaps to Interstate 20 in Alabama or similar, with a note added there to explain the shared section and a link to the other one. Pam  D  08:17, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect.✨️Serious Black @Contribute 12:47, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not all highway concurrencies have the type of sourced notability that, say, U.S. Route 1/9 does, and this one doesn't seem to warrant a standalone article. Any potential content would ultimately be forks of the individual articles. A disambiguation page sets a bad precedent, in that we don't need such pages for potentially every concurrency, and there is no single redirect target, in that I see no rationale to pick one route over the other, even if I-20 is considered a "major" Interstate. -- Kinu t/c 23:02, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

 * comment I have brought this back to a minimal version of what it said before the IMO wrong-headed disambiguation version. I have no opinion as to notability, but kept or not the article should be reasonable. Mangoe (talk) 03:19, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per Kinu. –Fredddie™ 04:34, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment—as shown now, the "article" fails WP:GNG as a topic distinct from the two overlapping Interstates, and this version of the "article" should definitely be deleted. Based on page views, it's an unlikely search topic to warrant the disambiguation page.  Imzadi 1979  →   07:54, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
