Homestead Bicycles

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Subject appears to be entirely non-notable by its own description; appears to be entirely self-promotional (author's user name is "Alden Olmsted" backwards); all external links/references provided mention nothing of Homestead Bicycles. Carl Lindberg (talk) 15:43, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Hmm... I don't see what the big deal is, article checks out when I followed the bmx23 mag link, as well as the Brian Foster wiki link. I typed in the Homestead Bicycles name on the Sonoma News website and got to the page, but it asked me to purchase the pdf, although it allowed me to view parts of the article. The bigger problem I see is that someone should create a specific page of bmx histories. So many companies came and went during that time...--Hilding II (talk) 16:38, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Uncertain I'm not sure of the importance of the company, but it is primarily advertising, so it is not a candidate for speedy. DGG (talk) 19:47, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

 * See, DGG? I told you. And you just had to revert me. Nobody will let me speedy anything anymore. :-P Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Many otters • One hammer • HELP) 23:48, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
