Non-notable street in Hong Kong. The article fails to provide sufficient sources or even details in the text, to support its notability. Delete as per Wikipedia:Notability and WP:RS. Note that existence does not prove notability. The road needs to be the a subject covered by the source not simply a location mentioned while discussing some ancillary topic. Article was previously PROD which was removed without any reason give for removal.Rincewind42 (talk) 08:35, 1 August 2014 (UTC) Rincewind42 (talk) 08:35, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

- Redirect to List of roads and streets in Hong Kong as a non-notable thoroughfare per WP:ROADOUTCOMES. Philg88 ♦talk 09:42, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

- Delete as a road that has no notability claim, and lacks significant coverage, fails WP:GNG. Any redirect should be to List of roads and streets in Hong Kong#Lantau as it is on Lantau Island. --Bejnar (talk) 14:50, 11 August 2014 (UTC)

- Redirect - regular main road. The article does state any reasons why this road is notable. -- Taketa (talk) 06:38, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
- Changing from delete to redirect. I have read the comments below, thought the road does not require its own article, at the same time I can understand why it might be better to leave a redirect. -- Taketa (talk) 19:58, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
- Do not delete. We have a very strong presumption against deleting plausible redirects. This could go to the list or to the article on the Island. It is worth mentioning that it is the sole access road to the south-west part of the Island. James500 (talk) 13:36, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
- Comment It's already in the list of List of roads and streets in Hong Kong. I'm going to start a discussion at Wikiproject Hong Kong about proposed improvements to that article, which would accommodate your concern over the road's importance. Philg88 ♦talk 14:30, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
- Comment The discussion is here. Philg88 ♦talk 15:14, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
- Redirect to List of streets and roads in Hong Kong. I have created a table there, with an entry for Tai O Road. Do not delete, as the article's history would be lost for non admins. Underwaterbuffalo (talk) 04:50, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
