Lexam

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Notability of company may be accurate. However article was started by the companies Vice President - Ian J. Ball (identity confirmed at Company logo upload where he states - Ianjbal (Talk | contribs) (Ian Ball, www.lexam.com) ) AND reads like a vanity page. At the very least it needs cleanup, but I nominate deletion. Ian Ball also created related articles at Rob McEwen - company president, and Lexam explorations - which has been tagged since early January as an orphan article. I would love to write an article about my own business, but WP:COI keeps me from doing so. In the same way in this instance it should be left to others to write about this company if they do so believe it is notable. SauliH 07:25, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I am also nominating the following related pages for reasons noted above
 * - publicly listed company (may or may not mean notability) - another advertisement for Rob McEwen. Image uploaded by [[Image:Us gold.jpg Ian Ball, www.usgold.com]

 * I am ready to admit that I am totally off base with these nominations, but with an initial read they come off as self-aggrandizement and self-promotion. SauliH 07:39, 4 March 2007 (UTC)


 * keep tho perhaps merge some of them. The nom admits N. The way to deal with spammy lists of executive personnel is to condense them. I just did it for this article. There's a nice photo, but it needs context. But the actual company name is Lexam Explorations, now a redirect. Lexam should be the redirect. DGG 00:45, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep all are notable, references are easy to find . They can be cleaned as needed. skip (t / c) 05:20, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
