Aksent

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article has been around for two years and neither gives references nor establishes notability. It is basically a list of a firm's clients, only four of them having an English WP entry. The corresponding Japanese article - as far as I can tell - seems to be an even longer list with little more information. Gunnar Hendrich (talk) 18:52, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: Why didn't you request more information then (perhaps a notability tag or something?), rather than just nominating it for deletion? Now you're requiring whole pile of work be done immediately rather than giving a decent amount of time for it to be done. I'll do what I can, but I won't have time for a few days to do any significant research, and by then it may be too late. And yes, I realize the article has been around for two years, but it's still common courtesy to ask for references before outright Afd-ing the article. ··· 日本穣 ? · Talk to Nihonjoe 06:04, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: If I thought that any notability could be established, I might have taken that approach. But the article says nothing than that it is a Tokyo based talent agency for voice actors AND the Japanese article does not look better. I just ran some of the Japanese infobox info through Babelfish - not much more in there: address, a registered capital of 10,000,000 Yen ($100,000) and 13 employees. So I do not see any chance of establishing notability, any new article like this might have been speedied under A7. If you show me any reliable source (in English would be great, but anything I can babelfish will do), we can talk about withdrawing the nomination to give you more time.

 * Comment: I still do not see any source for notability. Gunnar Hendrich (talk) 12:54, 19 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete If not for 2 year history, speedily. It's an A7. Simply being a talent management company is not notable. TravellingCari  18:08, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
