 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete and redirect to G-Shock. Given the copyright violation problem, which appears to have been introduced into the article in 2013, and discounting the sockpuppetry, I'm choosing to delete and redirect this page. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 23:32, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete/Redirect into G-Shock. --OpenFuture (talk) 13:44, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Casio is one of Japan's greatest and most well known companies and there is no reason to delete this article. JSDeme (talk) 17:45, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Merge Redirect This is apparently the first G-Shock containing history about the creation not written at that article. The history should be noted there. --Mr. Magoo (talk) 19:14, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Note to Admins I found out that most of the text is from this article unchanged. When it gets to the "In 1983 the debut G-Shock model" paragraph it stops copying after that sentence. That paragraph was the original page lead. An IP added most of the nippon.com text on top of that: diff. In the past I saw something like this called copyright violation. However this is a really good G-Shock source to be utilized with more paraphrasing. --Mr. Magoo (talk) 19:30, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
