FCS Computer Systems

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The two book references look serious but are actually as trivial mentions as you can possibly get. Then we have:
 * 3 and 4 - routine directory listings
 * 5, 6 and 9 - primary sources
 * 7 - news about the company getting some industry certificate valid for six months
 * 8 - article about a product made by the company which says nothing about the company itself

Overall the company falls short of the notability standard set out in WP:NCORP. Rentier (talk) 00:57, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep Article subject has a long history in the hospitality industry and is an company that encyclopedia users may encounter in the wild. Company has 10 apps on the itunes app store, and 13 on the Google Play Store:

 * It is beneficial to Wikipedia and Wikipedia users to retain this article. Manc1234 (talk) 14:28, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * I have several apps there myself. Does that mean I should be in Wikipedia? Rentier (talk) 14:44, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * If they are commonly used and it would help the general public to find out more about their developer, yes! Manc1234 (talk) 15:29, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * If the apps are very popular, why there is so little coverage in secondary sources? I strongly disagree that we should be looking up apps in app stores in order to establish notability of the developer. Rentier (talk) 15:37, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Sorry if this sounds like I'm being contrary, but in 2017, mobile apps are a major point of contact for people and real world businesses.
 * I understand that app stores have a lot of junk on them (https://techcrunch.com/2016/09/01/apple-is-going-to-remove-abandoned-apps-from-the-app-store/). And Google Play store is even worse as it has less curation. But where it's connected to a legitimate business I think the existence of an app shows notability.

 * Verifiability is not the same as notability. --Bejnar (talk) 19:03, 7 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete -- an unremarkable software company; nothing stands out about it. Just a company going about its business; such content can just as effectively be housed on the company web site. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:13, 7 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete no claim to notability is made in the lead. The company fails WP:CORP for lack of in-depth coverage.  In fact, it also lacks the significant coverage required by WP:GNG. --Bejnar (talk) 18:58, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
