De Vorm

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I've been on the fence about this one for weeks now and figure that it's time to bring it to AfD to get a definitive consensus as to whether it's notable or not. My impression based on the provided sources is that WP:NCORP has not been met, and I was unable to find more coverage online (although the fact that "de vorm" is a common phrase in Dutch did not help). signed,Rosguill talk 00:28, 18 March 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete Many of the references given in the article are really to stories about other things or persons, not this company. Two that are about the article subject are very short.  The two books are just annually-published industry references.  This is not really significant coverage as the term is usually meant here. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 18:58, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete There are a few sources that I think are independent and reliable. A notable exception is 2luxury2.com, which is neither. Not that it matters, because they didn't have much to say about the LJ Series (Chair) anyway. dezeen has a fairly in-depth article about Benjamin Hubert and his design for de Vorm, Pod. It mentions its "distinctive aesthetic" ( I think that's industry jargon for "ugly as hell"). design-milk.com has a small editorial on the AK2, six sentences. The article in frame isn't really about de Vorm or the Pod, but provides a page to post a series of interviews that take place in a Pod, so-called podsessions. This is clearly not an independent source. That also creates a problem for the two frame books by the same publisher, frame; they're not independent. The problem is that the articles that appeared to be independent and reliable are not really about the company. There's almost nothing we can find out about the subject from those few articles. They concern the designer or the product, but not the subject of the article. Vexations (talk) 17:52, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
