NB&T Financial Group

Was dePRODed in good faith  but  searches for independent, in-depth 3rd-party sources come up with only routine coverage (e.g. press releases and stock market reports) that do not assert notability per WP:ORG. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:26, 19 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete, did a bit of searching including looking in Factiva, but only found very routine coverage (stock prices, etc). Does not meet WP:CORP in my view.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 05:58, 19 January 2014 (UTC).
 * Rename to National Bank and Trust and re-purpose to be about the bank, not the holding company. Have information about the holding company as a small part of a larger article. While smaller banks generally do not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines, the historic lineage of this bank (dating to 1850) greatly increases the odds of finding something that rises to the level of significant, non-local coverage.  I have seen borderline-significant local/novelty-press coverage in two books,  and .  I have also seen possible evidence that there is still a market for vintage bank notes issued by this bank or its predecessors.  If a bank of this bank's size were not historic, I would probably recommend deletion given my inability to find more coverage than I have found.  I am okay with a soft-deletion or userfication to allow an editor to take the time to find more suitable references.  davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  20:08, 19 January 2014 (UTC)
