An outsourced services company with no evidence of notability. &mdash; RHaworth 16:20, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete I have made extensive searches for independent coverage of this company, using several different search facilities. I have found Mortgage Broking Services Limited, Merchant Bank of Sri Lanka, Mark Broadhead Sound & Light, MBSL Group Inc of Tampa Florida, MBSL - Sound & Light Solutions, Massachusetts Bureau of Statistics of Labor, multiple-bubble sono- luminescence, Minimum Basic Setback Line, Massachusetts Biotechnology Softball League, etc etc, but no sign of this company. Clearly non-notable. Created by an SPA which has no edits except to this article. JamesBWatson (talk) 13:12, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

 * Comment: there seem to be 21800 Google hits for "mcnally business services" limited, although there are only 851 if you put quotes around the whole thing.  And there are 28200 Google hits for "multi-bubble sonoluminescence," but not sure if "MBSL" is an accepted abbreviation.  Likewise, there are about 202 hits for "minimum basic setback line."  And there are a whopping 293000 hits for "Massachusetts Bureau of Statistics of Labor" (449 in Google Scholar).  Thus, you might want to consider disambiguation as an alternative to deleting the page. Bwrs (talk) 06:21, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as this article not only lacks any evidence of notability, but also lacks significant coverage per WP:CSD. Instead, coverage is limited to spammy promotion of its directors and its business. --Gavin Collins (talk|contribs) 09:27, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
