Kanti Sweets

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Promotional article with very weak evidence for notability. No justification for an article on this small enterprise.  DGG ( talk ) 22:37, 28 November 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete as both the advertising blatancy and the fact it was deleted once before (regardless of years ago), it's enough to show there's absolutely nothing here to suggest we'll be accepting it anytime soon at all; especially since these publications are damningly notorious for publishing advertising, hence not suitable at all.

 * Keep Notable sweet manufacturer operating since 1957, making it one of India's oldest operating sweet makers. The Deccan Herald is a reliable source. I found a few other sources from a quick web search. I'm not an expert here, but I don't think the article seems like an advert. In any case, that can be fixed rather than deleting. I've seen a lot of articles on Wikipedia with an "advert" banner. Also, I don't see any link to the previous deletion discussion, so without that I can't determine why it was deleted earlier. As far as I know, there is no Wikipedia policy against creating an article that has been deleted previously. So that should not be a reason for deletion.

 * Strong Delete. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NOTADVERTISEMENT big time. Source cited above also looks like an ad to me. Author of the article clearly have a dubious intention to promote the brand...Rameshnta909 (talk) 16:45, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
