List of technology companies in Quebec City

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Rather random list of companies, almost half of them links to disambiguation pages (5 out of 12) and several articles make no mention of Quebec at all. In this form useless and ready for removal. The Banner talk 12:02, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. I recommend someone start a proper list from the contents of Category:Companies based in Quebec and its subcategories before wasting time on such a narrow subset, and there is next to no valid content in this list as the nom describes. Only one article even mentions Quebec City, one more mentions Quebec generally, and the remainder are companies based elsewhere or undisambiguated links. There was even an entry for a Canadian defense agency (which I removed), not a company at all. postdlf (talk) 16:51, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Neither "technology" nor "in Quebec City" are tightly enough defined to make this a worthwhile list. --Michig (talk) 20:07, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Generally speaking, these sorts of articles are organized on larger-than-city geographical areas (I know there are vaguely parallel articles by state for the US, for example). Normally, the solution would be to upmerge. But, as noted, "technology company" is simply far too broad and poorly defined to make any such list of use. While this is not a bundled nomination, the closing admin may wish to apply a similar fate to List of technology companies in Montreal, List of technology companies in Ottawa, and List of technology companies in Vancouver. As confirmation that these aren't a distinct topic, these four "List of technology companies in [Canadian city]" are the only four lists of technology companies in articlespace.
