Talk:A497 road

Hello reader, I hope this finds you well. I was wondering if you agree with me by removing the redirect to A roads in Zone 4 of the Great Britain numbering scheme. This is because when Ritchie333 redirected the page in February 2018 (6½ years ago), no edit summary was left by the editor regarding their reasoning behind redirecting this article. Furthermore, like JMF stated over at the A508 road talk page in May 2023, unless there is an overall proposal to delete all three- and four-figure A-class roads (which is unlikely), it is not obvious what singles the A508 out for special treatment, and the same things applies to the A497 - due to the two reasons I just stated, I cannot see what singles out the A497 or A508 for special treatment, compared with other roads articles in the United Kingdom and worldwide, as quite a lot of those articles have either no references or less than five. If I don't hear anything back in the next few days, then I will more than likely remove the redirect. Regards, Roads4117 (talk) 11:55, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Roads4117, by "removing redirect" do you mean you’re going to make an article or delete the redirect? DankJae 13:01, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@DankJae Sorry yes I should have made that clearer; I mean re-making the article. Regards, Roads4117 (talk) 13:03, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A discussion is taking place about this at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_UK_geography#Removing_redirects_(re-creating_pages). Thank you. --10mmsocket (talk) 14:54, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
