List of companies with design management

 * – ( View AfD View log )

No sources verifying that any of these companies apply design management. The only source in the article does not contain anything to verify the information in this article. When I click on the URL, there is no mention of design management on this page at all. Toshio Yamaguchi (talk) 11:08, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete Criteria is not objective, defined, or capable of being objectively defined as it stands, so no list can ever pass inclusion criteria for Wikipedia. Dennis Brown (talk) 18:31, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete too vague, subjective, and undefined to create a verifiable and discriminate list. Dzlife (talk) 15:59, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment There is an objective definition in the article (though not at the top): has a DM dept, has published on DM, or has won a DM award. However, the article as it stands appears entirely OR.  A reference to help us uninitiated learn what DM is would also be appreciated.  I also wonder if the author paid any greater attention to the facts than to spelling and links, five of which I have just corrected. Matchups 03:14, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
