Delete per nom. Not a notable company per WP:NCORP.Charles (talk) 09:18, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Due to the company now being closed and merged with Diamond Bus, perhaps this article could be deleted and the Diamond page updated to reflect the merger? Yamhamdan (talk) 10:26, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Yamhamdan, Unfortunately I have no idea where in that article it can be merged into, I don't want to just randomly stick it anywhere ...., FWIW as a general comment I wouldn't object to redirecting however this should be deleted first, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 11:54, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Diamond Bus § Black Diamond which has some content about this company. A valid search term per WP:ATD-R. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 14:36, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I originally closed as Redirect however bizarrely one editor who !voted Redirect appears to have an issue ... I'm dumbfounded but regardless I've reopened and relisted .... It's a shame this place has become so bureaucratic. –Davey2010^Talk 20:46, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing bizarre about expecting an AfD to remain open for at least a week and that it should not be closed by the nominator. People who might want to comment need a chance to see it.Charles (talk) 21:47, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Diamond Bus#Black Diamond per above, since the company has been bought out. There is some information in the standalone article not (yet) reproduced there, but I'm not sure it's encyclopedic enough to warrant being copied over. Good job finding the relevant destination for the redirect, North America! —GrammarFascist _contribs ^talk 01:19, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
