Redirect to Deployment environment#Staging (and remove hatnote). There are a lack of sources specifically discussing a staging site but there are some discussing a staging environment. However, there's not enough out there and the Deployment environment article isn't long enough to justify a spin-off article at this time. The content already exists in the target article so a redirect is preferable over a merge. Ca2james (talk) 17:03, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect and merge to Deployment environment#Staging, per Ca2james. The topic is good, but it's a section within a broader article, not an article of its own. Andy Dingley (talk) 16:56, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
