 * Keep. A chain that had disappeared by the 1970s is unlikely to have many online sources! -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:19, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete The article is entirely unsourced and the only source includes a small reference commenting on a photo of Meesons sweet shop where you could buy a quarter of sweets and get another quarter free. Also, our policy WP:V states that information should be verifiable. Necrothesp validly points out that online sources won't be readily available for a chain that disappeared in the 1970s but online searches of newspaper archives and books doesn't turn up any information or mention. On that basis it is difficult to argue for notability.  HighKing++ 20:22, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. Although I found a brief mention in the Glasgow Herald, print sources are the best case for this. There's precious little coverage available. In its current state, it appears to be a collection of knowledge from someone's memory thus failing WP:V. Can always be reworked on if archives are found. ≫  Lil- Unique1  -{ Talk  }- 20:54, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
