List of businesses involved in World War II

Methinks there's just not enough to merit an article. < Hollandmc >< Talk > 06:25, 15 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Weak delete- I really want to say there's some kind of potential here, but I don't know what. Given that the article was edited all of once since 2006, i'm guessing nobody else knows what either. Umbralcorax (talk) 07:06, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete If this list was comprehensive almost every largish company operating anywhere in the world between 1939 to 1945 would need to be on it. As such, this isn't a very useful classification. Nick-D (talk) 11:00, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as per Nick 'D' Dowling (!). Buckshot06(prof) 11:28, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Interesting general topic. What you really need to do is look at the businesses by country. (BTW there seems to be a current trend that says: "Businessperson/corporation bad. Politician/government good.") Steve Dufour (talk) 16:40, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - not enough to hang a hat on, and such a list could potentially run into the thousands, plus there would be an NOR nightmare. 23skidoo (talk) 17:34, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as a virtually unmaintainable, indiscriminate list. You could argue that every American business during that time, whether it be through using their profits to buy War bonds or planting Victory gardens, were involved in the war. MuZemike  ( talk ) 19:44, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Only three businesses were involved in WW2? I don't think so. Ecoleetage (talk) 01:57, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
