Company potentially fail WP:GNG. Also, there is an info tag that one editor of the article has close ties with the company. Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 13:17, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Tyw7: Hi all, I created this article as part of an effort to add basic pages for very large public corporations (specifically, those appearing on the Fortune 1000) in the United States that lacked Wikipedia pages. In theory, one would expect such large public corporations to meet Wikipedia notability-it looks like I can add a brief history section using sufficient reliable sources to clearly establish that it meets WP:GNG. The ties to the company tag was added due to a brief promotional-style edit that was quickly reverted and is no longer reflected on the page.

Delete. WP:LISTED notes that being listed or such is not enough for WP:NCOMPANY. WP:CORPSPAM based on press releases, their rewrites, and worse. WP:NOTYELLOWPAGES. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 13:55, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I expected to find some analyst reports on this company which would count towards notability but I have been unable to locate any. As such, I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria for establishing notability, topic fails GNG/NCORP. HighKing⁺⁺ 13:35, 16 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
