Delete it mate! It is a padded out dictionary definition mate. It is not likely to be any more than is there at the moment. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 23:32, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
Delete per nom - this is a dictionary definition (and a bad one at that) Nick-D (talk) 23:57, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
Redirect to Discounts and allowances. It's a concept worthy of more than just a dictionary definition. Daveosaurus (talk) 01:04, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
Merge with Discounts and allowances dealing with customer characteristics. WWGB (talk) 01:37, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
Merge to WWGB's suggested location. Per WP:DICDEF, it's out of place in Wikipedia. --Andrensath (talk | contribs) 05:43, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
Comment I'm neutral on the AfD decision - it seems to be this could be a worthy article if it had referenced sources. But in any case I added some info about "mates rates" to the article Discounts and allowances. IMO it ought to be there even if this article is kept. BTW I noticed that Senior discount already redirects to that page. --MelanieN (talk) 01:11, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
