Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (your reason here) --N7912 (talk) 22:22, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (This is a company with historical significance that links to many other wikipedia articles) --216.164.116.19 (talk) 22:49, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

The tone and content on this page is not promotional. The page simply states various facts about the Draken International corporation.


 * An admin will be along shortly and assess it to see if it meets the criteria for speedy deletion or not. - Ahunt (talk) 22:26, 24 January 2013 (UTC)


 * It doesn't meet the criteria for speedy deletion, so I declined it. Unless the abysmal references can be improved, however, it may not survive AFD. I've seen televised news coverage of this company, so I suspect it's notable. The challenge is to find reliable sources to prove it, not merely press releases. ~Amatulić (talk) 19:00, 25 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the input. I have it noted to do an extensive ref check as soon as I can and see if I can find some third party references about the company. - Ahunt (talk) 00:35, 26 January 2013 (UTC)


 * I gotta say, when I saw televised coverage some time ago, I thought it was a pretty cool concept for a business. That uniqueness and originality makes it notable (as in, worthy of note) in the real world, but not by Wikipedia's criteria.


 * I see some news coverage by a Czech publication that seems to be a legitimate news source about Czech and Slovak military topics, according to its profile page. The news item is at http://www.atmonline.cz/news/2013/leden/160113b.htm


 * Here's another, from the Australian press: http://australianaviation.com.au/2012/08/draken-international-acquires-ex-kiwi-skyhawks/


 * I'd also consider Defense Update (we even have an article on it) to be a reliable source: http://defense-update.com/20120808_skyhawknz_a4_draken.html


 * Hope those can help. ~Amatulić (talk) 00:58, 26 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Yup those are great! That at least shows that we should have an article on the company as it meets WP:N, just need to fix the article we have! It's on my short list, just RL is getting in the way of editing right now! - Ahunt (talk) 12:32, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
