American Media Distribution

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Poorly sourced article about a media company, created by an editor with a likely COI. I was unable to find reliable sources with which to establish notability. Fails WP:ORGDEPTH. - MrX 19:39, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

It fails notability because they operate behind the scenes. One look around the net, the BBB and other sources in the field verify their existence. they have the second largest reporter pool in the world. You need to dig a bit deeper. No one writes articles about these people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.114.184.2 (talk) 04:39, 13 May 2014 (UTC) 
 * Delete per MrX. The onus is on the article creator to provide sourcing. Chris Troutman  ( talk ) 20:50, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete It is false to say that "the onus is on the article creator to provide sourcing". This is not an adversarial process, it is a consensus-building process; we assess whether a subject meets the notability guidelines, not whether a particular person has provided evidence to support notability.  That said, I'm not seeing sources that establish notability.  GoldenRing (talk) 09:27, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
