It was prodded by User:Anachronist with the following rationale: " WP:CORP concern: no significant coverage of the company is evident in the sources provided, all of which do nothing more than describe a luxurious office space.. " It was deprodded by User:Grantbradley88 (creator) with the following rationale "Added history, how it works and controversies sections.". I don't think the added coverage pushes it over the notability threshold. As I discussed in my Signpost Op-Ed, this is a good example of Yellow-Pages like company spam.

  • Merge and redirect to The Priceline Group. While rentalcars.com appears to have won a notable award, most of the article isn't really encyclopedic information and could be greatly trimmed. After doing that, the content left may as well be merged to the parent article. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:14, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Selective Merge to The Priceline Group. Source searches are providing some coverage, and this could have borderline notability. However, a merge will improve the merge target article, which only has passing mentions, as per WP:ATD-M. North America1000 02:44, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
