Fairly obvious piece of spam, translated from the French article which is (he's also been warned about undisclosed paid editing both there; and here. I've a previous incarnation to draftspace to allow the creator to work on it, but instead he just keeps recreating it with different capitalisation, hence bringing it here for a decision. The company itself almost certainly does meet notability requirements, but every incarnation of the article thus far has been far too promotional to be viable as a Wikipedia article.  ‑ Iridescent 11:08, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - As the article stands, WP:BLOWITUP. The company ought to be notable, but this article doesn't do the job. The claim to own The Body Shop is totally unsupported; too many of the sources are SIVOP's own website; the language is too promotional ("offering" products comes a close second to Z-list celebrities "welcoming" their babies in my eyes). A good faith {{db-g7}} from Jaberahmad on the article and an undertaking to build the draft & take it through the WP:AFC process seems the best way forward for both the article's development and overcoming Jaberahmad's COI.
