Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Triangle Rewards

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to Canadian Tire. Clear consensus not to keep. Less agreement on the redirect-merge-delete spectrum. Redirect seems like a reasonable middle ground, and keeps the history around if somebody wants to mine it for material to merge. There were two different possible redirect targets mentioned; changing the redirect can certainly be worked out via normal editorial discussion. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:54, 14 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

either delete or merge to the article on the company., , altho I'm not really sure that there is anything worth including. "loyalty" schemes are ten a penny.TheLongTone (talk) 15:41, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:MILL and WP:GNG. As implied by TheLongTone, loyalty programs like this come and go, are very common, and are cheap to start up. If it must be kept, I suggest redirecting it to Canadian Tire. Bearian (talk) 14:09, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Canadian Tire. There's no real need for a separate standalone article here, when it can be briefly addressed in the store's article — there just isn't enough to say about it as a topic in its own right to make a separate article necessary here.

Delete. Could have a separate section about it on the Canadian Tire page if the free advertising is really necessary. Dorama285 (talk) 03:41, 6 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Note I fully understand that even though other similar pages exist, it does not make a similar page notable. Of the five largest customer loyalty programs by retailers in Canada, all of them have articles (Scene, PC Optimum, Air Miles and Aeroplan). Should these programs be merged into their parent company articles? The rationale for the article was that it was the predecessor of Canadian Tire money and that companies beyond Canadian Tire accept the cards. It's harder to explain to non-Canadians, but these programs act more like currencies than loyalty programs. If the discussion result is merge, Canadian Tire Financial Services would likely be the best suited article to house it, as they administer the program. Daylen (talk) 22:48, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Canadian Tire as there is no need for a seperate article now. KartikeyaS (talk) 16:58, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
