Keep: Historical information is still useful and far from irrelevant; older highway numbers are needed for context when talking about anything published prior to the switchover. Nominator failed to specify any real reason to delete the article. Sounder Bruce 01:51, 29 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. National highways are often notable, including those which have been renumbered. More concerning is there seems to be a duplicate article, which is already up for Afd: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of National Highways in India by old highway number
Keep. Wikipedia is not just a repository of current events, but also of history. Merging is a different issue. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:24, 1 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
