 * Delete I could only find Wikipedia mirrors and hobby websites such as this one. Broc (talk) 15:57, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment. The corresponding Japanese article at ja:クローバー (玩具メーカー) may have references. Also, try the Japanese equivalent of findarticles in the box at the top of the Japanese article at  ja:クローバー (玩具メーカー)  and also at these links:   Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:24, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep I've found a few reliable sources, now added to the article. Plenty of detail on this site which itself cites source material with a bibliography. Also found supporting info on JSTOR. Liandrei (talk) 23:07, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep No evidence of a WP:BEFORE search that includes Japanese-language sources as required before starting this discussion. Two good English-language sources already in the article and Liandrei's search turning up more. I would urge all English-language editors to remember to keep WP:NOENG in mind and look for non-English sources for materials. DCsansei (talk) 20:41, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Ironically I did search in Japanese. This article has been unsourced since 2008 until I attempted to find sources in English and Japanese, was not successful and nominated it for deletion - which brought it to Liandrei's attention who added the two sources. I'm completely fine with the outcome of this nomination regardless of the outcome - if the article is sourced instead of deleted, that's wonderful. Frankly though, I'm disappointed that you've chosen this dialogue rather than assessing the situation more adequately. It discourages new editors from being bold when they encounter more experienced editors who are quick to not assume good faith. Annwfwn (talk) 23:02, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
