Genetec
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Spammy article without reliable sources. The sources found in the previous AfD are trivial passing mentions that don't cover the company in any detail or rehashed press releases ("Genetec announced that..."). None of that meets WP:CORPDEPTH. Even if better sources were to be found, the current article is pure spam, and deleting it would not add any additional effort to the complete rewrite that would be necessary: WP:TNT applies.

 * Comment. I was going to vote delete then saw the discussion at the first afd, a number of refs were identified but they didn't end up inline at the article. So...I will see what happens with those refs, if anything, and vote later. Szzuk (talk) 20:45, 2 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. I gave it a chance. Szzuk (talk) 17:10, 24 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete. I agree, none of the sources found at the first AFD in 2012 are high quality, and nothing positive has happened with the article since. Apart from an SPA trying to turn it into a blatant company page in Special:Diff/591903860/597113166. Blow it up and let somebody without a COI rewrite an article in the future, if they think they can. Sam Sailor 14:11, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unsourced for four years and nobody has fixed it.  I looked over the "Further reading" section to see if any of those could be used as WP:RS.  Not.  My first thought was, WTF, somebody's trying to delete Genentech??, but quickly discovered my error :-)  -- RoySmith (talk) 14:16, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete: Searches find various items, but they are predominantly routine release or contract announcements, which confirm this to be a company going about its business, but fall short of the WP:NCORP criteria. AllyD (talk) 16:30, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
