Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Companies
![]() | Points of interest related to Companies on Wikipedia: Portal – Category – WikiProject – Alerts – Deletions – Assessment – To-do |
This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Companies. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Companies|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Companies. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Of the sources in the article, the only kinda in-depth coverage is in WeGotTickets (a ticketing company?) and DrownedInSound (web-zine). There's an interview w/ the founder in BBC Music blog, but I'm not convinced any of these are strong enough reliable sources for a notability argument. All the others are just mentions of Fika in the context of an album that has been released etc. WP:BEFORE in newspapers.com, google news/books, pressreader didn't turn up any additional coverage beyond mentions. Considered ATD but I don't see a clear merge or redirect target as the founder doesn't appear to be notable and the record label is associated with multiple musical groups.

- Delete I haven't found anything outside of primary sources and routine business announcements. Many sources are "fintech" focused and I tend to view such sources with the same skepticism as crypto focused sites. I haven't found much in the way of notability for the previous iterations of the company either. The sources on the historic article don't seem to meet reliability or notability requirements either.

- Keep. Dubai Petroleum meets the notability requirements outlined in WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORG through multiple independent and reliable sources that document its substantial historical, economic, and operational significance within the UAE’s energy sector.
- Founded in the 1960s, the company played a pivotal role in transforming Dubai's economy with the discovery of the Fateh offshore oil field, and has since operated five major offshore fields: Fateh, South-West Fateh, Falah, Rashid, and Jalilah—a fact extensively covered by third-party sources such as Gulf News, Oxford Business Group, and The National.
- From 2007, Dubai Petroleum Establishment assumed full operational control of Dubai’s oil assets, following the end of concession agreements with ConocoPhillips. It has since launched significant innovation initiatives, including Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques, HPHT drilling, and offshore structural inspection via drones and ROVs. These technical achievements have been recognized with industry awards, such as the Emirates Energy Award in 2013.
- Its relevance is also institutional: Dubai Petroleum is a member of the Dubai Supreme Council of Energy, aligning it with broader governmental energy strategies. Moreover, its strategic partnerships—e.g., with Baker Hughes, TechnipFMC, and Petrasco—demonstrate global operational integration.
- While the current article may lack depth, this is a case for expansion, not deletion. The nominator's claim that coverage is insufficient is refuted by a comprehensive analysis containing over 50 independent, verifiable citations, including from:
- Oxford Business Group
- The National
- Gulf News
- Rigzone
- Human Rights Watch (environmental critiques)
- Chambers and Partners (industry analysis)
- Stock Titan, Zawya, and World Oil Online (industry coverage)
- Furthermore, Dubai Petroleum has been part of major international policy discussions (e.g., energy sustainability during COP28) and has faced scrutiny regarding fossil fuel emissions, positioning it within ongoing global environmental debates—a mark of notability per WP:SIGCOV.
- Deleting this article would remove coverage of a key institutional actor in Dubai's energy sector. A cleanup tag or {{expand}} would be more appropriate than deletion. — EduExplorer47 (talk) 08:58, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

- Could you please guide me further on the kind of changes that would align this article with Wikipedia's notability guidelines? Specifically:
- Are there certain sources currently in the article that still do not meet the standard of independence and reliability?
- Would adding coverage from particular types of third-party publications (e.g. newspapers, academic journals, industry reviews) help establish notability?
- Are there tone-related areas you feel still read as promotional?

The article reads overly promotional and borders on G11. It needs a complete rewrite for neutral tone, but only if notability is established. When discounting routine business coverage such as press releases, funding announcements, and store opening updates, there is virtually no significant, in-depth coverage from reliable, independent secondary sources.

- This is a false and baseless nomination that should be withdrawn. The article clearly meets Wikipedia’s notability standards, and I have since added multiple new, verifiable, and independent sources to further strengthen its reliability and alignment with WP:GNG
- You are a new or relatively inactive account that appears to be nominating articles without sufficient understanding of notability criteria or proper engagement with the article’s actual content and sourcing. Wikipedia encourages constructive editing and improvement — not careless deletion nominations.
- Per WP:BEFORE and WP:NOT, deletion should never be the first step when an article is clearly improvable and well-sourced, as is the case here.

Blackened Recordings is not an independent entity from Metallica themselves. The origins of the record label are exclusively contained within the history of the band and their desire to want to own their own work. And this is, in fact, the sole purpose of the record label [1] (any source that exists out there discussing Blackened Recordings will likely just be a rehash of this initial announcement). It was made by Metallica, it does not sign any other artist but Metallica, and it has not released anything but work made by Metallica. It is also not similar to something like Reprise Records or Republic Records, which are whole companies with their own standout history, because Blackened Recordings has no history. And therefore, no reason to have its own page (see WP:NOPAGE). I suggest a redirect back to Metallica. λ NegativeMP1 20:02, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

- Honest Card (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
does not meet criteria of WP:NCORP/WP:ORGCRIT or the broader WP:GNG. Every citation in the article is either the company’s own web domains, lightly rewritten press‑release items in local Indonesian business blogs (Infobanknews, Techverse.Asia, Kontan, Republika, Warta Ekonomi, Kompas), or brief venture‑funding notices (e.g. Preqin’s one‑sentence financing blurb). None offers the significant, independent, secondary coverage that policy requires. A thorough news‑database and web search turned up nothing beyond routine funding announcements and product‑launch snippets, which are explicitly classed as WP:ROUTINE and thus insufficient for notability.
The subject is also very young, so any claim to lasting notability is WP:TOOSOON. The article’s promotional tone, product‑feature list, and heavy reliance on primary sources underscore the absence of neutral, verifiable coverage. With no evidence of significant coverage in reliable, independent sources, the topic fails Wikipedia’s organisational notability standard. AndesExplorer (talk) 18:47, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

- I'd like to respectfully oppose the deletion of the Honest Card Wikipedia page for several important reasons:
- The company has demonstrated significance beyond routine announcements. Their $19.7 million Series A funding represents substantial investor confidence, they've secured official licensing from Indonesia's Financial Services Authority (OJK), and have achieved over 1 million users on Google Play Store Indonesia.
- While applying WP:GEOSCOPE, we should recognize that Honest Card has particular regional significance in Indonesia, a nation of 270+ million people. Several cited sources are established Indonesian publications with journalistic standing. Kompas is Indonesia's largest newspaper, while Infobanknews, Republika, Kontan, and Warta Ekonomi are recognized business publications that have provided independent coverage beyond press releases.
- Regarding WP:TOOSOON concerns, Honest Card has already achieved significant milestones that suggest notability: governmental licensing, major funding, Mastercard partnership, and substantial user adoption. These aren't preliminary achievements but established accomplishments.
- Rather than deletion, I suggest we follow Wikipedia's collaborative spirit by improving the page: adding more independent sources as they become available, addressing any promotional tone, and expanding context about Indonesia's fintech sector. Geraeldo Sinaga (talk) 03:48, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

Fails WP:NCORP/WP:ORGCRIT and the broader WP:GNG. The article is sourced to only two items:
- a one‑paragraph Bloomberg wire about Ceridian’s 1995 purchase (reprinted in *The New York Times*) – routine transaction coverage; and
- Fleetcor’s own 2014 investor news release announcing its $3.45 billion acquisition – a primary, self‑published source.
Database searches (Factiva/Lexis/Google News) locate nothing more substantial than brief Reuters market notes on the 2014 deal and similar M&A rumours – all explicitly WP:ROUTINE business disclosures lacking the in‑depth, independent, secondary analysis required by policy.

Fails WP:NCORP/WP:ORGCRIT.

fails WP:NCORP/WP:ORGCRIT and the broader WP:GNG. All listed citations are either routine local business pieces such as The Star, The Edge Malaysia and The Malaysian Reserve, re‑posted press‑release material on company or partner blogs, or passing mentions (e.g. a single paragraph in The Founder's Mentality). None provides the sustained, in‑depth, independent secondary coverage required by policy. The one heavily repeated story – CTOS Digital’s 2022 purchase of a 49 % stake – is a standard business transaction and therefore WP:ROUTINE; routine corporate deals do not in themselves confer notability.

I boldly blanked-and-redirected this article to Surfshark, its parent company. This was disputed on the talk page so now I'm bringing it to AfD. I'll copy my BLAR explanation here: " Looking through the history, this article was created, then subsequently tagged with Template:notability among other clean up tags. It was then redirected to the parent company, Surfshark. Following this redirection, an editor translated the French version of this article (which itself was translated from the earlier English version of this article) back in to English. " I do not see WP:GNG/WP:NCORP being met here. JackFromWisconsin (talk | contribs) 17:18, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

- Keep. Look at sources and make a judgement. I have just restored the version I worked on, with four sources. Using ProQuest via WP:TWL will show the fulltext of relevant newspaper articles. The sign up is instant and seamless, you need 6 months/500 edits/10 in last month for access I think. Try searching "Quintessential Equity". From memory, the oldest article from The Australian in 2013 is probably superior to any used thus far, including the fifteen suggested in the previous AfD. It would be great if editors could quote bits of NCORP or content policies in this discussion. I don't know how I would be able to understand the formation, investment strategies and development of those strategies of a company just by reading "routine coverage" in independent, reliable newspaper sources. Unfortunately I don't have any more time to devote to this process, but I would be wary of the analysis previously provided by Robert McClenon.--Commander Keane (talk) 08:26, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

- Keep. My opinion that the company passes WP:NCORP hasn't changed since the previous AfD. And thanks to Commander Keane for their work on cleaning up the article. Linking the sources I presented in the previous AfD again for reference: [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28]. And as Commander Keane notes, there are even more good sources from The Australian, the Australian Financial Review and others on Proquest. MCE89 (talk) 09:35, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
- Draftify - Commander Keane says:
Look at sources and make a judgement. I have just restored the version I worked on, with four sources
. I did, and see three sources, not four. When I look at the sources, doing what a reader of the encyclopedia who wants to verify the content will do, I run into the Australian Financial Review paywall. I didn't try to follow the instructions that Keane says are seamless, because a reader won't be able to follow those instructions. In particular view of the history of conflict of interest editing, good-faith proponents should have some respect for the concerns of the editors who first objected to a spammy article and now object to an article with one old but significant source and two old invisible sources.
If the proponents can't find any non-paywalled sources, then respect for the core policy of verifiability should be to move this into draft space until the proponents can pass the Heymann test by finding viewable sources. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:57, 7 May 2025 (UTC)
- @Robert McClenon As I am sure you are aware, there is absolutely no requirement that sources be non-paywalled in order to satisfy WP:V. In fact, WP:V explicitly says
Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to access
. I am more than happy to send you PDFs of any of the sources currently used in the article or any of the other sources I linked above (which I will add to the article as well) if you wish to verify them for yourself. But insisting that all readers should be able to access sources has absolutely no basis in policy. If that was the case, sources like the New York Times and the majority of academic journal articles could not be used for establishing notability either, since many readers will encounter a paywall. But policy is clear that sources should not be rejected just because some readers may not be able to access them. MCE89 (talk) 03:35, 7 May 2025 (UTC)
- I did say I planned to review the sources in more detail if it ever got relisted, so I suppose I better get on with it before this expires. Starting with the best and clearest examples selected by MCE from the previous AFD:
- Overall, I'm not really convinced the sources meet NCORP at this point, but I will be adding the other 8 of 15 to my assessment table later, before looking for, e.g., that 2013 The Australian article. Alpha3031 (t • c) 09:41, 7 May 2025 (UTC)

- Delete Most searches are turning up promotional material from paypal sites.

- Hey @Derek J Moore, thanks for the kind words. Yes, I'm a historian and my focus is usually on Paraguay and neighbouring countries, so to me it feels great to add pages from their beautiful history to the English wiki. On the topic at hand, the way you're writing feels to me as if this was an opinion column in a newspaper or a blog - it doesn't read encyclopedia-like. Look at, for instance, Peer mentoring - it is organized in more or less the same way as you organized Social impact publishing, but sticks to replicating what its sources claim, there is no OR. Another suggestion would be to read WP:!. All this isn't to demerit your work, as I know the effort it takes to write in Wikipedia when we're all so busy with real life. Rather, your contributions are valued, you just have to be more careful with the way you present them.

This article does not meet the general notability guideline, and does not meet the notability guidelines for companies. The claim to notability surrounds its involvement with human rights abuses, ending in deaths, in Indonesia. This breaks policy because just because the company was the subject of a (probably not) notable event, does not make it notable. No inherited notability. Next, This company does not have WP:SIGCOV that is WP:SUSTAINED, and the sources don't seem to be WP:RS, but I haven't done a deep dive.

- Keep as this company is clearly notable (the awards such as this are independent and significant) and the article is detailed and thorough. The problem here is it looks too promotional and should get an NPOV tag instead of deletion. WilsonP NYC (talk) 22:28, 26 April 2025 (UTC)

Consensus has been that notability is not automatic in WP:LISTED (or any other) case. Fails to meet WP:NCORP, WP:CORPDEPTH. Indian media sources, whether on or off Wikipedia, should be viewed with caution, as they often present press releases as news WP:RSNOI. Apart from that, activities like revenue targets, profit/financial reporting, turnover news, capacity expansion news etc., are merely routine coverage WP:ROUTINE, regardless of where they are published.

- Keep. I came across several independent research reports like this, this and this, which critically and thoroughly cover the company. In addition to this, there is also significant critical coverage surrounding the IdeaForge drone fraud case, such as this and this. Chanel Dsouza (talk) 12:55, 30 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Chanel Dsouza I would like to respectfully point out that the PDF reports you shared from HEM Securities and HDFC Securities may not be entirely independent. Both documents include disclaimers on pages 6 and 17, respectively; which clearly indicate the presence of
"potential or material conflicts of interest"
. Also, they mention that"the firms or their associates may have received compensation from the companies covered in the reports within the preceding twelve months"
. Indian securities reports should be viewed with some skepticism, something I realized during Senco Gold's AFD. These reports are often prepared for internal use within portfolio management services, where the firms typically hold shares in the subject companies or try to promote a particular narrative, especially around upcoming IPOs.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, asilvering (talk) 17:36, 4 May 2025 (UTC)- Delete I cannot find coverage outside of routine business news updates that tend to be wire-style. I would agree that PDF reports from analysts are not reliable even if they are in depth as analysts often have a hidden agenda to convince people to pump or short stocks.Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 23:38, 4 May 2025 (UTC)

Per WP:GNG and WP:NORG – From what I've been able to find, none of the sources passed WP:SIRS since none of them were secondary and did not contain any significant independent coverage of the airline itself and only contained more or less passing/trivial mentions of the airline.

I declined a G5 as an IP had some copyediting, but that might be a sock of the original banned editor, and I don't know enough about Indian companies to determine if the organisation is notable or not. So here's a discussion. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:05, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

- Keep I found the subject notable. Sources cited in the article like The Indian Express, Times of India, and several others are bylined, independent, and provide sufficient coverage to meet WP:GNG. SATavr (talk) 14:04, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
- Keep - I was ready to go for delete, but there are actual facts and good sources. It certainly needs more work, but it appears to be notable on close examination. Bearian (talk) 09:30, 5 May 2025 (UTC)
- Keep and keep improving. If sockpuppetry and editing by COI IP users continues, I would suggest protecting the article to allow editing only by autoconfirmed users in order to prevent further disruption. The article requires substantial improvement, particularly in the sections beyond the lead, and needs better referencing. However the subject appears to meet notability criteria with sufficient significant and critical coverage available through Google search results.Chanel Dsouza (talk) 07:19, 6 May 2025 (UTC)
- Delete None of the Keep !voters have identified any sources that meets WP:NCORP criteria for establishing notability, that is in-depth "independent content" about the orgnization. "Independent Content" means content which isn't entirely reliant on press releases, announcements, interviews or other content regurtitated from company sources. For example, this Times of India article referred to above is not Independent (as in "independent content") and is not in-depth. It is 7 sentences long and 2 of the sentences are directly attributed to the company, with the rest relying entirely on information provided by the company with no independent commentary or analysis, article fails both CORPDEPTH and ORGIND. Or this in New Indian Express is a single sentence - that is not in-depth information, fails CORPDEPTH. HighKing++ 20:03, 6 May 2025 (UTC)
- Keep This is a company therefore GNG/WP:NCORP meets at least two deep or significant sources with each source containing "Independent Content" showing in-depth information *on the company*. "Independent content". And i can see some references in Google search that pass the criteria. Syam Steel Case Study, Economic Times, The Times of India, Business Today and The Economic Times. B-Factor (talk) 06:12, 7 May 2025 (UTC)
- Let's take a look at this sources in more detail and point out why they fail NCORP - happy to listen to a counter-argument if you disagree
- This "case study" is written by a Amazon AWS because the topic company uses their services. That isn't "independent content", that's advertising, fails ORGIND
- This from Economic Times is a press release from the company and fails ORGIND. For example, you can find the exact same article reguritated in different publications such as here, here, here and here.
- This repeats what the company announced (and acknowledges this in the article text) with no independent content (e.g. commentary/analysis/etc). You can find the same announcement regurgitated here. Fails ORGIND.
- This is a mere mention with no in-depth information (not even a complete sentence) about the company, fails CORPDEPTH.
- Finally, this article (which is 7 sentences) is also entirely based on company PR and contains no "independent content". Of the seven sentences, four are directly attributed to a company official. You can also find the exact same information in different publications such as this and this (which acknowledges it is PR). Fails ORGIND.
- Regurgitated PR does not meet NCORP criteria. I'm happy to take another look if you can point out which paragraphs in which sources you believe contains independent content. HighKing++ 11:14, 7 May 2025 (UTC)
