  • Keep: Per WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP. Since nothing much has changed since the first nomination, I do not see the reason why the opinion would be changed now. Article needs updates though --Plaxie (talk) 16:10, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment You're right, nothing has changed since the first nomination, because this article is still mostly sourced to the company's own website. I can't find multiple reliable independent sources to support it. If you can, that's great - please add them in or share them here. Otherwise if the company has been running for 31 years and has had an article for over a decade, it's reasonable to question its notability. Mccapra (talk) 17:07, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I will try to find additional sources, though the company operates in a specific field probably not covered by mainstream media. What I found is that they indeed have set some standards for testing of integrated circuits accepted by IEEE. --Plaxie (talk) 17:33, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Company of 216 employees with $43m revenues is already small, so they need to have very notable products, but they don't. Almost nothing turns up on WP:BEFORE, and most online references really trade/PR releases for the company, so fails NCORP and NPRODUCT. No major WP:RS of which they are the main subject.
The discussion at the 2008 AfD was of poor quality in my view, and some of the refs quoted would not pass now (they are really primary, being PR releases in lower tier publications). Other arguments were really ILIKEIT (it was a "no consensus" case - at best). Can't see this surviving long-term on WP. Britishfinance (talk) 00:53, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
