Removing redirect to A roads in Zone 4 of the Great Britain numbering scheme

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), the reason was that this article was a unreferenced, non-notable and non-primary road. Howvever, I have since found a handful of references for this article. Also, when Chidgk1 proposed to redirect the A508 road page in May 2023 (1¼ years ago, due to the page being not notable, Rschen7754 stopped them in their tracks by reverting this PROD because Chidgk1 failed to provide any prior justification for their proposal, of which the same applies to the A4217 road page; when looking at this article talk page, Ritchie333 failed to provide any justification for deleting the page. In addition, hundreds of Wikipedia articles on UK roads are based on non-primary roads; the A215 road is a non-primary road, yet it is at Good Article (GA) status at the time of writing. 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 A4217 - due to the two reasons I just stated, I cannot see what singles out the A4217 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) 13:06, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
