Fails WP:NCORP/WP:SIGCOV, sources cited are not independent, routine business announcements or commercial blurbs. The one exception is an article in Network World about their online sales system, but that does not suffice to establish notablility. Kleuske (talk) 18:34, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: as per nom. But, I would like to ping HighKing for an opinion (not for vote). - Hatchens (talk) 09:42, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Although I am going to try and hunt down some more sources today, just a bit of background, I found this company on the German wiki and basically translated it over (Although the German article only uses primary sources from their main website). Based on the overall history of the company I figured it would be worthwhile. Thief-River-Faller (talk) 13:11, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep The article in its present state isn't great, reads like an ad and contains a good bit of promotion. But its a well established company that should have it's own article - Towel401 (talk) 16:55, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete This is a company/organization therefore NCORP guidelines apply. I'm not responding because I was pinged - this was on my list of AfD topics in any case.`

• As per WP:SIRS each reference must meet the criteria for establishing notability - the quantity of coverage is irrelevant, there can be 100 references but for the purposes of establishing notability we only require a minumum of two that each meet the criteria
• WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content".
• "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. This is usually the criteria where most references fail. References cannot rely only on information provided by the company, quotations, press releases, announcements, interviews fail ORGIND. Whatever is left over must also meet CORPDEPTH.

None of the Keep !voters above have returned with any references and I am unable to find a single reference that meets the criteria. Topic fails WP:NCORP. HighKing⁺⁺ 15:49, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
