Gemstelecom

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Local telecommunications company serving a single city, making no substantive claim of notability that would pass WP:CORP and sourced entirely to primary sources with not a shred of reliable source coverage. It's certainly not impossible for a company of primarily local notability to get into Wikipedia, but the article has to be a lot better than this to get there. Delete.

Strong delete. Mount Royal isn't even a city, it's but a hill! It appears to be part of Montreal. This article would be notable if Wikipedia was only for Quebec, but Wikipedia is international so this article ought to be deleted.

To be fair, this article's just erroneously linking to the wrong topic. The undisambiguated Mount Royal is indeed about the hill — but we do have a separate article about the city of the same name at Mount Royal, Quebec. Bearcat (talk) 01:40, 26 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To be even more fair, the company has headquarters in Mount Royal and operates in Quebec and Ontario. That, for Canada, is equivalent to a 'Baby Bell'. —Neonorange (talk) 06:04, 26 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

On the other hand, I don't think there is a chance in hell to find even an independent source, much less WP:RS; my recent searches, in French and English, make me think that Gemstelecom is a fairly small ISP. —Neonorange (talk) 07:27, 26 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
