No obvious notability, failing WP:GNG --David Tornheim (talk) 09:03, 8 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Comment - This is an established home builder in Ontario, Canada.  A basic Google search indicates that the name of the company and what it is building is mentioned frequently in reliable sources (usually in real estate sections of Ontario newspapers).  Company executives have also been quoted in the news a few times for their expert opinion in articles about new homes and so forth.  Note that WP:OUTCOMES states that "companies reported as significant subjects of news coverage are usually sufficiently notable".  That being said, this article barely passes WP:ORGCRITE, which requires more than a single secondary source to support notability.  After much searching, I could locate just two reliable secondary sources which talk about this company, and both sources had already been added to the article.

 * The sources you added fail to meet the criteria for establishing notability. This article from The Star is an advertorial and follows the usual format. It fails WP:ORGIND. The next article, also from The Star fails for the same reasons. In any case, please note that two independent secondary sources must be from different publications in any event. -- HighKing ++ 17:10, 18 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:CORPDEPTH and GNG. -- HighKing ++ 17:10, 18 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete -- a regional builder with no indications of notability or significance. The content belongs on the company web site; Wikipedia is not a WP:WEBHOST for company's promotional materials. K.e.coffman (talk) 15:16, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
