Diversicom

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Fails WP:NCORP/WP:CORPDEPTH. Not a lot of coverage located on a search - mostly business listings and one source that appeared promising until I realized it was a novel.

It's also important to be aware of false positives. According to this article, the company didn't rebrand as Diversicom until 1999, so any sources about Diversicom before that are not applicable to this company. I was not able to find any significant coverage of it as "Melrose Telephone Company" either. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 15:30, 31 October 2021 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete This is one of those topic companies that doesn't appear to be notable in their own right but at the same time has some historic significance and should perhaps be mentioned if there was an article on the history of local exchange carriers or similar. The lack of sources means it fails NCORP.  HighKing++ 21:32, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
