I prodded this with "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline and the more detailed Notability (companies) requirement. ". Deprodded by creator who added an infobox and a reference to bloomberg yellow-pages-like listing. Neither changes my assessment significantly.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Comment Concur with the nominator that nothing in the article comes remotely close to verifying notability. A quick Google News search suggests they may be notable, but since it's all in another language, it is hard to evaluate. are there any in-depth press articles about this org, where the company is the main focus of the article?

 * Keep. It will be a short article, but the references in Polish indicate the company is Notable in Poland. Some of them are just brief mentions, but enough to show Notability. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 06:44, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
 * What references in Polish? I see none in the article. Nor on the web. I looked and found no in-depth coverage, and just passing mentions in unreliable sources like blogs, forums and such. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 09:03, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

 * As I pointed out in the pl wikipedia, those are not references: blogs, forums comments - and all they serve is to show the company existent. No single, independent, third party source has written as much as an article about this company. All that we have is several editors saying that it is an important company, and backing their opinions with a blog, forum posts, and the company's own history page. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 03:11, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

Notability isn't just proven by whether it is something you personally have knowledge or experience of. It is easy to translate news releases in other languages in order to assist with understanding notability. This is a large company with a long history, and great visibility in the markets it serves. Wikipedia is not to be limited to only an encyclopedia similar to "World Book" or Britannica, but is to be incredibly more inclusive than that, and include companies and other topics that relevance in history, modern day life, etc...

I disagree with most opinions for deletion of articles. Scoty6776 (talk) 14:41, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
