Geico spa

I don't think this company meets the level of notability required. That the article is adverty in tone doesn't help, although this isn't a reason for deletion on its own. I would have nominated it for a speedy delete but it makes (unsourced) claims of notability, so brought here for more input.

 * Weak delete. I find mentions of the company in Google but not actual coverage. It also doesn't help that the only real editors to the article are two sockpuppets that haven't been around since April 2007. Erpert (let's talk about it) 17:01, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's a 100+ year old Italian company leader on the Italian market in the field of automotive paint plants. Clearly notable. --SulmuesLet's talk 15:47, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 * According to the article the company was founded in 1963. Do you have a source that says its a) 100+ years old and b) the market leader? Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 23:34, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
 * Right on the first page of the website of the company. . Also in the history part --SulmuesLet's talk 03:31, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, that says Carrier started in 1905, not Geico spa. Erpert (let's talk about it) 06:47, 11 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete, all I can find are press releases. -- Nuujinn (talk) 15:05, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
