 * Comment: Three of the sources look okay - why aren't they adequate? Garuda3 (talk) 18:09, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete - Fails WP:NCORP. References for companies must meet the criteria of WP:ORGCRIT and nothing here does. --CNMall41 (talk) 01:41, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

 * KEEP The references meet the criteria and prove credability of this company. Mlaviolette (talk) 19:22, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Which references meet our notability criteria though?  HighKing++ 23:44, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete as the sourcing in the article is lacking, mostly industry publications. While there's no specific bar on earned media being used for WP:NORG notability these are quite narrowcast and not indicative of independent reporting. The Wash U article is an outlier -extensive, independent but narrowly focused on a COVID/PPE issue.  If other reliable in-depth coverage surfaces I'd be willing to reconsider.@BoraVoro did you do WP:BEFORE searches?  There is quite a bit of independent discussion of the company in connection with Hunter Engineering Co v Syncrude Canada Ltd but I don't see that blossomed into a broader article about the company. It would have been helpful if you had acknowledged the existence of such sources and explained why they didn't support notability.@Mlaviolette is a single purpose account focusing on this company and its chairman Stephen F. Brauer. A query about conflict of interest is unanswered at the talk page for nearly 5 years, but this edit admits to working for the company. Oblivy (talk) 14:19, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete This is a company therefore GNG/WP:NCORP requires at least two deep or significant sources with each source containing "Independent Content" showing in-depth information *on the company*. "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. I'm unable to identify any references that meet the criteria for establishing notability.  HighKing++ 23:44, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
