The result was Speedy keep‎. Still a brand all its own, and Walmart didn't pay $2 billion+ just to trash it. An all-around, bad faith nomination. (non-admin closure) Nathannah • 📮 18:34, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

NOT WP:AFD but can we please redirect this to List of Walmart brands now that Walmart owns Vizio? This is NOT being voted for deletion. Bryce M (talk) 17:36, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - See [1] for more info on why to redirect. Bryce M (talk) 17:38, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Notability doesn't disappear because the company was sold. 20th Century Studios doesn't redirect to Disney, Kraft Foods Inc. wasn't deleted when it split. That list of Walmart brands is for brands that aren't notable themselves. It might be good to add a link to the Vizio page to the list. AllWeKnowOfHeaven (talk) 17:54, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The fact that Vizio might cease to exist as brand outside Walmart doesn't change the fact that it clearly met WP:N while it was an independent company. Guettarda (talk) 18:31, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep/close, this is AfDeletion, not AfDiscussion. A merge can be discussed in other places (see WP:MERGE). I am bad at usernames (talk | contribs) 18:34, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
