HME, Incorporated
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails NCORP and GNG. Small firetruck manufacture company based in Michigan. I couldn't find anything else about it. I also found out that the person who created the article is associated with the company by the name User talk:HME, Inc.

In the last afd someone mentioned this but like I said thats all I could find. Then again what @User:JBW said the google book only has 1 paragraph about it which doesnt make it notable `~HelpingWorld~` (👽🛸) 05:35, 19 December 2022 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Keep per the references presented in the previous AFD.  The nominator also mentions that one user in the first AFD claimed that the Google book only has 1 paragraph about it which doesnt make it notable, but fails to mention that this same editor was corrected and acknowledged his mistake during the first AFD, later voting "keep."  Furthermore, as the article has stood for over 12 years and has had a large list of editors during that time, I do not think COI is valid grounds for deletion in this case.

 * @Frank AnchorKeep in mind that the editor that created the Wikipedia article is associated with the subject. Also deletion is neccesary, The souce has little to nothing about the subject, it mentions it a few times. The first source was deleted for whatever reason, so that doesn't make it notable. `~HelpingWorld~` (👽🛸) 05:26, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * There is enough mention about the subject to consider it significant coverage, though I agree it would be nicer if there were better coverage out there as well. COI is a non-issue as a large list of other editors are responsible for the vast majority of the content on this page (well over 75%)  Frank  Anchor  12:15, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Agree with HelpingWorld, the mentions are small and the book is not about HME. It does not add onto notability. Carpimaps (talk) 06:40, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * It should be noted that Carpimaps joined Wikipedia around the same time this AFD started and has an editing pattern highly unusual for a new user (a substantial percent of their contributions involve input on AFDs, adding warning templates to talk pages, etc).

 * @Frank Anchor, the user page says new acocunt so it could be a old user. `~HelpingWorld~` (👽🛸) 00:25, 3 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep There are sufficient sources (2 books) that in my opinion just about meet NCORP criteria for establishing notability.  HighKing++ 14:28, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
