 * Merge, and redirect. From the current Wikipedia article itself: "After 3 successful years, StartUp Britain was acquired in March 2014 by the Centre for Entrepreneurs - the entrepreneurs’ think-tank – founded by serial entrepreneur Luke Johnson (businessman). The Centre for Entrepreneurs (CFE) is a natural home for the StartUp Britain campaign, as it adds the evidence and thought-leadership necessary to inform and influence policy. This enables StartUp Britain to have greater influence in discussions around small business policy and allows StartUp Britain to share the opinions and ideas of small business owners with government. StartUp Britain continues to be run as an autonomous initiative and remains separate from the central CFE activity, but will partake in joint reports, activities and research to help shape and inform policy with the CFE."  So, it would seem appropriate to merge and redirect from Startup Britain to a section in Centre for Entrepreneurs.  If the latter is currently a redlink, then start that article by this material from Startup Britain.  Note there is virtue in retaining this article's history, there is no need to delete the contributions from Wikipedia's history. -- do  ncr  am  16:10, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete - The article contains only one authoritative article which is insufficient to prove notability.--Rpclod (talk) 18:54, 5 August 2014 (UTC)
