Delete The references are all based on company announcements and they fail WP:ORGIND. There doesn't appear to be any references that meet the criteria for establishing notability. A footnote in The Blackstone Group would be more appropriate. Topic fails WP:NCORP. HighKing⁺⁺ 15:52, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. A company listed on the New York Stock Exchange is likely to be notable. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:54, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Eastmain: What? Anybody can set up a business and launch it as a public company by having it listed on a stock exchange, and if you are in the United States there is a high probability that you will do so on the New York Stock Exchange, since that is by an overwhelming margin the biggest stock exchange in the country. (In fact it is by far the biggest in the world.) There are not far short of 3000 companies listed, of which many are not remotely notable, by Wikipedia's standards or any other standards.

@JamesBWatson: @HighKing:. For notability of listed companies, please see WP:LISTED. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 12:57, 8 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. The article is poorly written, with just simple sentences bulleted down, as if it were a fact list. Revisit if the article is neatened up. Redditaddict69 ^{(click here if I screwed up stuff again) (edits)} 06:53, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: being WP:LISTED is not a free-for-all; sources are still required. They are lacking in this case; promotional page. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:17, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete or merge a bit into the Blackstone Group since they've all but takenover the company (awaiting shareholder approval). BTW R.E.I.Ts commonly trade on the NYSE, but are not stocks in any of the usual senses, more like a RE mutual fund. I would generally support the idea of making companies with stocks trading actively on major exchanges automatically notable. But REITs, pink sheet listings, etc. need not apply.
