Life Insurance Corporation of India
I'm simply questioning the inclusion of this article in Wikipedia. What do you think, as I'm not so sure. Silles Sellis 12:51, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete No content other than a website link. KeithD 15:33, 19 July 2005 (UTC) Keep due to changes made below. Good save, guys. KeithD 16:50, 19 July 2005 (UTC)


 * Comments only, no Vote in response to the query by Silles Sellis: this is a corporate entity, which is as of date, fully owned by the Government of India. It is the largest life insurance company of India. Headquartered in Mumbai, which is considered the financial capital of India, the Life Insurance Corporation of India, as of date, has 7 Zonal Offices and 100 divisional offices located in different parts of India, at least 2048 branches located in different cities and towns of India, and has a net work of around one million agents for soliciting life insurance business from the public. I think it is enough for now. I may continue to write a full article, running into at least 12/13 paragraphs, but I would not do that right now, as I want to encourage the creator of this page to incorporate at least these points in the article. --Bhadani 15:42, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Bhadani obviously knows something about this. I will copy this text into the article and vote to keep the resulting article.  Smerdis of Tlön 16:23, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Done. I also deleted the weblink, which linked to a dodgy 95meg.com site; if there's an official site for the corporation it ought to be added.  Quaere, the images from  and  look awful when juxtaposed; is there a magic word that allows the stub links to be added without pictures? Smerdis of Tlön 16:37, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Thank you gentlemen. To-day, I am feeling a bit tired. I shall expand the article suitably very soon. --Bhadani 16:54, 19 July 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep the revised article. Aecis 17:30, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Expanded 4 paras mostly on History, will expand more.--Bhadani 18:42, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep the revised article per Bhadani. This company apparently has over 150 million policies in force. --Metropolitan90 23:49, July 19, 2005 (UTC)
