 * Keep. This subject matter is appropriate as part of our coverage of Transportation in Dubai. It might be more detailed than necessary, but that is an issue for editing.  We could also consider merging a shorter version of this as a new section of Transportation in Dubai; but again, that's for editing, not AfD. --Arxiloxos (talk) 15:18, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep and fix. This article is very helpful for people who are not familiar with the payment system of the transportation in Dubai. As the recent contributor of this article, I acknowledge that I have added details more than necessary and I apologize for this. I assure you that I will remove unnecessary details of this article as soon as possible. Regards Ayub407 (talk) 15:47, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep, at most Merge in to Transportation in the United Arab Emirates., Advertisement by itself is not sufficient as an explanation for starting this AfD. The Nol Card is reasonably notable, as notable as a MetroCard/ --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 18:56, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment: Rsrikanth05 Please note that the Nol Card is only used in  transportation in Dubai, not Transportation in the United Arab Emirates. So therefore, this article should not be merged with Transportation in the United Arab Emirates.

 * Yes, yes, the same. I said UAE because I was working on cleaning up that article with another user. Also, because I know that my Nol Card can be used on a Dubai-Abu Dhabi bus, which would fall in the purview of UAE and not just Dubai.--Rsrikanth05 (talk) 11:31, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, The Nol Card indeed can be used outside Dubai like Dubai-Abu Dhabi bus, but that bus is managed by Road and Transport Authority (RTA). Anyway, I suggest that this article should stay separate instead of merging with  transportation in Dubai or  transportation in the United Arab Emirates because this article looks simpler and this article's information will increase in future.

 * Consensus says Keep as of now, so I don't see the article going anywhere, but my suggestion was in the event consensus asked to merge it. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 16:56, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep - Nothing promo about it, Sure it needs fixing but certainly doesn't need deleting!, I suggest the nominator re-reads this page before nominating any more articles!. – Davey 2010 •  (talk)  23:05, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - obviously as notable as any article in Category:Fare collection systems In ictu oculi (talk) 11:15, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. It helps understand the different kinds of Nol cards in the market. And it is certainly not promotional. Ranged Enigma (talk) 13:50, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
