The result was keep. Assuming Stepho's arguments are apparently towards keeping the article, I'm closing this likewise keeping in view the keep !votes of other editors. (non-admin closure)  Lourdes  14:15, 29 July 2017 (UTC)

Calty Design Research

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Merge or merely delete, as nothing encyclopedic has been added here. Only Car models in this whole article. Significance is only that its a part of Toyota. No doubt its one of the biggest Automobile company. But creating their division as Wiki pages, where it does not add any value like giving car models page links?

 * Light2021@undefined, didn't you read on the talk page about how we are gathering information to expand it? Couldn't you wait another week to see the results?  Stepho  talk 22:18, 6 July 2017 (UTC)


 * The normal length of time at Afd is a minimum seven days. You still should have time to improve it... Shawn in Montreal (talk) 03:15, 7 July 2017 (UTC)


 * I have improved the article a lot. When first raised concern about the article I outlaid on the talk page the ways to correct the perceived faults. My plan was to do this in my spare time over the coming weeks. But Light2021 waited only 3 days, did not participate in the discussion at all and instead initiated this attempt to delete it. I have improved the article a lot but I have only had time to do about half of what I wanted. I still have many research clues to chase down (see comments on the talk page and hidden comments in the article) and only limited time to devote to this project. Further improvements will have to be on the order of weeks, not days, as per normal for most articles.  Stepho  talk  22:00, 11 July 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Draftify may be a viable alternative!

I've made considerable improvements to the article. As noted above, I'm only halfway through the improvements (many laid out in on-page comments and on the talk page) but have been quite busy lately on real-world projects (ie, job and family). Over the next month or so I intended to improve it further. To my knowledge, the purpose of this article is quite within the realm of Wikipedia and is written in a factual manner. Can we consider this discussion closed?  Stepho  talk 09:16, 21 July 2017 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Keep This article in Automotive News, plus the sources in the article, show that Calty is a notable topic separate from its parent company. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  06:53, 22 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep - the article has been significantly improved compared to the last time I saw it, especially on the referencing side, and now there's more than enough to back notability. --Urbanoc (talk) 13:01, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
