 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Basically single-source text about a good but nonnotable glue manufacturer. The first AfD discussion was in 2004, but in 10 years our notability rules became more severe. Staszek Lem (talk) 16:44, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep. I don't work on cars and haven't bought glue since Elmer's in elementary school many decades ago, but even I've heard of this company and its product. Article is a mess, but that can be fixed. (!vote based on assumption some RS can be located.) Pax 08:18, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Weak keep - While not quite as notable as products likeWD-40, it is part of the culture. I think it can be properly sourced if someone is willing to put in more than just a few minutes of time. VMS Mosaic (talk) 23:32, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - WP:GOOGLETESTing throws up a reasonable selection of reliable sources, which I'm working on adding. The article is badly out of date.  The real problem with this article is neglect, not notability.    Fiachra10003 (talk) 15:18, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep "Notability", we define it in terms of independent discussion of the topic. Either you really didn't look for this one, or else you're just deleting it on article quality, rather than topic notability. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:19, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
