Stagecoach Gold bus route S2
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

NN bus route. Cant find any notability, no major established sources other than operator sources, each make it look like an advert. One source related to a route change, following a dispute; WP:ROTM. Previous AfD does bring up some points but nothing that warrants needing its own article. Each can be explained on the (essentially) parent article Stagecoach Gold.

 * Merge to Stagecoach in Oxfordshire. There is not the significant coverage in reliable sources that would allow us to write a proper article per WP:WHYN. It seems the Stagecoach Gold article would only ever list this route, whereas Stagecoach in Oxfordshire seems more amenable to the inclusion of additional information related to Oxford.<strong style="color:#555555">Pontificalibus 15:04, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge to Stagecoach in Oxfordshire per above editor and nom. Shelbystripes (talk) 15:06, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment - this article had an AfD four months ago and the consensus was to keep the article (and it identified sources that could be used to justify keeping the article). The nominator themselves doesn't even suggest deletion, they suggest merging. It is not good faith to make another nomination so soon afterwards and I ask the nominator to withdraw the AfD in good faith - if you want a merger discussion, you should do so at the article's talk page.

 * I'm suggesting deletion on notability, not merging. I'll agree my description wasn't thought out that well <b style="color: White;">Night</b><b style="color: White">fury</b> 08:12, 12 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per my previous reasoning on the first nomination. The article still isn't notable (as most bus route articles are not) and the previous outcome suggested improving the article based on questionable sources that have yet to be provided. Ajf773 (talk) 08:56, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge to Stagecoach in Oxfordshire per the above. There is no justification to delete something when a merge will improve the encyclopaedia. Thryduulf (talk) 10:39, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
