D-Company
Reason the page should be deleted

I chanced upon this article through another page.A company or mafia by this name does not exist, doing a google search on this name No document pertaining to Dawood Ibrahim as mentioned in the article is returned at least in the first entries.This seems to be a term certain Editors have invented on Wikipedia to refer to Dawood Ibrahim gang or it exists in the slang of certain neighborhoods and is hardly an entry that Wikipedia can afford.The first deletion entry could not be successful as the voting sample was too small to curtail the systematic pov effects TerryJ-Ho 21:09, 24 August 2006 (UTC) Keep - per 1st Afd discussion Bakaman Bakatalk 03:11, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep. Hi TerryJ-Ho, I understand your concerns. I am in India, and the term D-Company is frequenty used by Indian media. This Google search should remove your doubts. utcursch | talk 14:06, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
