 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Companies and Italy. BrigadierG (talk) 01:20, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: I can find sources on particular models of their machines, but nothing about the company itself aside from catalogues trying to sell me one of their products. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH.  WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 01:35, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to illy, (or just merge). When we remove the catalogue listings at the bottom, we are left with a few lines about the company. Oaktree b (talk) 02:09, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment (but maybe a weak keep with redirect/merge as an alternative to deletion) I'm pondering if there'll ever be enough for a standalone article or if it should be merged into Illy, which is surprisingly short to me so it may fit well. Some sources I found: It must've been something I ate: moderate mention/detail of and a positive review in a food book. Longer articles/reviews in newspapers (there are more capsule/short reviews that exist): & (talking about repairing espresso machine using the author's Francis machine),  stand alone review,  discussion in the context of Italian artistic things and includes mention of FrancisFrancis!'s plate set.  Longer reviews: A 300+ word narrative review of a FrancisFrancis! machine. Mentions/minor case studies in text books/business books:, , . (Passing reference but interesting to me: FrancisFrancis! on the Will and Grace set.) Skynxnex (talk) 02:40, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Illy seems to be appropriate as per above Pranesh Ravikumar (talk) 02:29, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Illy. It's a high threshold for a product to warrant its own article, which is not, in my opinion, met in this instance. There is nothing lost by having a redirect to the company page, which is certainly notable. If the product has sufficient discussion in secondary sources, a small sentence would be fine on that page. However, there is nothing of significance I can see regarding this particular machine that makes a merge vote worthwhile or practicable. The contents are largely not worth copying over. — MaxnaCarta  ( 💬 • 📝 ) 02:45, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Illy, for the reasons given above. The article as it stands needs a  on almost every line, as it is full of unsupported statements. As for the "Interesting facts" section, interesting for whom?   Athel cb (talk) 08:01, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Illy as per ATD, totally agree with the reasons provided above. The references are insufficient for GNG/NCORP criteria in any case.  HighKing++ 12:19, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
