Christiani & Nielsen

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article about a company, written more like a PR profile in a business directory than an encyclopedia article and not referenced to any evidence of reliable source coverage in real media to establish that it would pass WP:CORP: until I stripped them as WP:ELNO violations, the only "references" present here at all were offsite links, sitting directly out in body text instead of footnoting anything, to parts of the company's own self-published website about itself. As always, however, the notability test that a company has to pass to get a Wikipedia article is not just that its own website technically verifies that the company exists -- a company has to be the subject of significant and non-trivial journalistic coverage in real media, in order to establish that its activity and accomplishments have been deemed worthy of attention by sources independent of its own public relations department.

 * Keep Company is a publicly traded company with stock ticker CNT. There are plenty of news coverage from Google news search . Company has very long history and constructed many landmarks. --Lerdsuwa (talk) 05:55, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per Lerdsuwa. Clearly notable, covered by third-party sources such as the Danish–Thai Chamber of Commerce and ScandAsia. The article's poor shape was due to recent copyvio/COI editing, which I have reverted. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:49, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - Seems perfectly OK to me. One should always ask "can this be saved" before AFD'ing, and in this case the answer seems to be "obviously yes". Maury Markowitz (talk) 11:42, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
