Trifectant

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

Notability not established. This is a brand name not a generic product. There are 2 news articles available on google news and both of these old articles only mention the product in passing rather than establishing any notability. Sources for notability unlikely to be found and as the page has been tagged for improvement for 15 months without addressing the issues, this counts as a near hopeless case.

Delete, non-notable product referenced only to the manufacturer's site. Google news search reveals only casual mentions in stories about sites that required cleaning with disinfectants. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:21, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect, to virkon, the more common name for this range of disinfectants. Tim Vickers (talk) 21:30, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Virkon is apparently another brand name, apparently used by the same company that makes this brand, Antec International, now a subsidiary of DuPont. Now, the very brief article about Antec does reveal that As of 2006] many of Antec's products, such as Virkon, have been undergoing a slow process of rebranding. This makes me wonder whether this is a new name for the same product, or a different but related product. This may well require attention from janitorial pro's; for the moment I suspect the best thing to do would be to merge and redirect both virkon and trifectant at the Antec page. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 00:08, 22 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Antec International. The Google News articles should be added as references. Unsourced information should be removed, although it would be nice to find sources on the ingredients. Rain74 (talk) 06:51, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

merge Virkon into this, especially as the links for Virkon no longer work. It does seem to be really a name change, and this is the fuller article. DGG ( talk ) 18:54, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
