Article largely reads like a press release. All the sources except for one are direct from the company website. What do you all think about having this merged with Razor USA? Thank you. JAH2k (talk) 14:43, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep per WP:NEXIST: Razor scooters are in the news quite a bit, because of public arguments about the role of scooters in city life. It's one of several companies currently working in cities, so it's often mentioned as part of a larger trend. Here are some examples:
 * "Bird, Razor Last Companies Standing as Scooter Craze Fades", Rivard Report (Jan 20, 2020)
 * "Bolt, Bird, Lime and Razor Scooters Will Be Off D.C. Streets in 2020", DCist (Dec 3, 2019)
 * "MSU Razor Scooter Club Thrives Amid Return of Motorized Scooters", The State News (Oct 3, 2019)
 * "Not a Smooth Ride So Far for E-Scooters in Tucson", Arizona Public Media (Dec 10, 2019)
 * "Road Runner: What to Know About Electric Scooters Hitting Tucson", Arizona Daily Star (Sept 9, 2019)
 * "Razor Scooters Have Lost the Edge on Competition", The Clarion (Nov 13, 2019)
 * Also discussed in Entrepreneurial Opportunity: The Right Place at the Right Time by Greg Clydesdale, Taylor & Francis (2009)
 * I think that goes some way toward establishing notability. -- Toughpigs (talk) 16:49, 24 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep, apart from meeting WP:GNG due to heaps of sources re above, wrong forum as nominator appears to not want this deleted but merged. Coolabahapple (talk) 06:58, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
