Target article doesn't explain (or even contain any reference to) Payback. Jonathan Haas (talk) 19:25, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
- Comment – Agree with nom, but this was a promotional article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Permalink/918074058] that was converted to a redirect to the parent company, so this might warrant an AfD discussion. – Thjarkur (talk) 19:38, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Normally I'm one of the strongest voices against deleting former article content at RfD, but this content was tagged for G11 speedy deletion (exclusively promotional) and it certainly did meet that standard. Indeed it was less neutral than the version deleted in 2017 - see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Payback (loyalty card) (it was not eligible for G4 speedy deletion (repost) as the redirected version was substantially different from the deleted version).

- Comment I note the Rchat "with history" and {{u|Þjarkur}}'s comment above. Before we delete this redirect, would we need to do a proper history merge here, {{u|Thryduulf}}? --Doug Mehus T·C 01:44, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
- {{replyto|Dmehus}} There is no indication that any content from this article was merged to American Express so a history merge would be incorrect. While the redirect does have a lot of history, it doesn't have anything that we need to preserve. Thryduulf (talk) 09:33, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
- {{replyto|Thryduulf}} Okay fair enough. Just wanted to check. Consider my bolded "delete" in my comment above my !vote. --Doug Mehus T·C 16:28, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
- Merge back to Payback India The 2019 version was split off from Payback India, so if this should redirect there unless the India article is under discussion for deletion. Note PAYBACK also redirects to American Express AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:27, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
:Support the merge proposed by {{u|AngusWOOF}}. Doug Mehus T·C 21:13, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
