Chieftain Products
Defunct Canadian game company that fails WP:CORP. (The notability of the distributed products (eg Scrabble) should not be conflated with the notability of the actual company. Eusebeus 23:58, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. The article has references. At least one of the company's products (a toy oven) is in the collection of the Canada Science and Technology Museum. While the individual games may be more interesting than the company, the company is still notable. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 00:34, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete NN. References fail to meet CORP. Arbusto 01:19, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. This kind of, admitedly minor, article is one of the areas where I think Wikipedia adds value. Deet 10:37, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete non-notable. Having a product in a museum is not an automatic claim to notability. The article doesn't affirm any significance to Canada, game enthusiasts, or the games distributed by the company. The two games mentioned are distributed, not created, by Chieftan (as mentioned by the nom). SkerHawx 03:09, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
 * The company created other games which simply haven't been listed in the article yet (e.g. True Dough Mania). Several major media citations are present under external links; there's also a company profile here. Company is well within the bounds of WP:CORP, IMO; stubbishness is not a reason to delete. Keep.
