I can't see that this satisfies our new and improved notability requirements for companies. Yes, the company has been accused of tax evasion; but that's hardly unusual. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 20:01, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, considering I added the 'notability' template in the distant past. Nothing much has improved. The artilce in World News is actually authored by Kitco themselves. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NCORP. Scant evidence of reliable in-depth news coverage in non-industry news sources. Sionk (talk) 21:01, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Fails WP:NCORP also noticed self published sources on GNEWS nothing from a secondary source. Lapablo (talk) 18:30, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Reluctant Delete Kitco is a highly respected company within the precious metals financial markets. They have analysts and sector based news that are widely read and quoted. Unfortunately this has not translated into the independent in depth coverage required by our guidelines for establishing notability. If someone wanted to argue for an IAR exception, I'd be tempted to support it. But I have already made an IAR argument recently and that's my six month limit. -Ad Orientem (talk) 02:02, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
