Delete because it fails WP:CORP. This article appears to be the result of a couple of articles that appeared after Miyako Taxi of Kyota launched a new policy where its cab drivers would no longer engage their passengers in conversation. There is not any of the in-depth coverage required by WP:CORP. Miyako Taxi of Kyota is only a relatively small Japanese taxi company. "Miyako Taxi" is a name used by a number of local taxi companies throughout Japan; see Talk:Miyako Taxi#Possible confusion. In fact, the Japanese Wikipedia article about Miyako Taxi is about the one in Miyazaki City. Perhaps it deserves mention in an article about Japanese transport, although I note that taxis are not discussed in the section Transport in Japan#Road, nor anywhere in the Transport in Japan article. --Bejnar (talk) 14:07, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete -- the article makes no claim to notability, and consists entirely of a description of a marketing gimmick. No value to the project at this time. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:07, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, this seems to be a WP:ONEEVENT sort of case, where there was a very brief flurry of some media interest, followed by nothing. It would be good to have some information on the Japanese taxi industry somewhere, and this event might justify a brief mention in said article, but there's no real valid merge target at the moment and the content in this article isn't so extensive it couldn't be easily recreated from scratch.
