Kostoulas

fails WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:GNG. The sources are simply directory listing or a bio for a person that works for another recycling company that lists his previous work for Kostoulas. Domdeparis (talk) 13:36, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. Per nomination. A purely promotional article, devoid of any reliable third-party sources. I had been adding COI and Notability tags, but were constantly removed by Kostoulas' promoters. Some IPs and users are promoting Kostoulas company in Greek WP, English WP, and Commons (cf. user's W220greece global contributions, and his/her Greek public logs). There were several attempts to create a Greek article on Kostoulas, but all articles were eventually deleted for lacking notability; cf. Κωστούλας, Κωστούλας ΑΕΒΕ, and Kostoulas Recycling (3 times!). →34kor34 (talk) 19:18, 29 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep.The page was created with the purpose of this particular historical company entering the wikipedia. Unfortunately for some reason. Instead of helping to correct the page, I get from 1-2 users of wikipedia requests to delete the page. I wish the page wont be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.66.220.24 (talk) 13:11, 30 August 2017(UTC) — 94.66.220.24 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * The reason that the page is being regularly deleted is that it doesn't meet the criteria. Not all companies are considered notable enough to have a page on Wikipedia. This is not a directory of every company that exists. If you want the page to stay then read the notability criteria in WP:ORG and try and find the sources to prove that it meets these criteria. I looked and couldn't find them. Domdeparis (talk) 13:16, 30 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Well, what I and other users have suspected is proved to be true: user W220greece has been using multiple IPs (cf. contib. of 94.66.220.39, obviously the same person behind 94.66.220.24)/accounts to promote Kostoulas in en-WP and el-WP, and for reverting other users placing tags (vandalism) as well. →34kor34 (talk) 07:16, 31 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete Per nom, as said before, the lack of reliable sources and notability sinks it. Shellwood (talk) 13:26, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:SPIP, references fail the criteria for establishing notability, fails GNG and NCORP. -- HighKing ++ 11:25, 4 September 2017 (UTC)
