Nearly A7 material if it wasn't for "Fairford became the first company in the world to design and produce a fully digital three phase Motor Controller with automatic Energy Optimising"; my searches have found nothing convincingly better and the current article is still questionable for notability. It's worth noting this has basically stayed the same somewhat since I reviewed it in May 2012. SwisterTwister  talk  20:32, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. Just commercial blurb (paid editing?). No independent sources. Xxanthippe (talk) 00:25, 7 May 2016 (UTC).
 * Keep. Inventing a soft start controller for 3-phase motors is not just commercial blurp but notable and has independent sources. DeVerm (talk) 02:06, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete or incubate - From what I can see a good 2/3 of the article text is about their invention, which has it's own article. What's left about the company itself isn't promising as a standalone article. Tpdwkouaa (talk) 00:51, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
 * There is an article about their invention but it does not include anything about the history nor inventor. It could be merged to that article, with a redirect for the company name. DeVerm (talk) 19:34, 11 May 2016 (UTC)


 * delete fails WP:CORP. the few gnews hits it gets are either passing mentions or primary sources. LibStar (talk) 17:23, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
