Nogi Industries

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Another of the Expewikiwriter paid group account articles. The sources don't really scream "notable" to me; I may be wrong, I'm not sure how you judge the notability of a clothing company specialising in a fairly obscure sport, so I'll turn it over to AfD to decide. It'd need a good clean-up if it is going to be kept. 86.** IP (talk) 16:48, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Article reads more like an ad than an encyclopedia article. Sponsoring events and athletes is not an indication of notability.  There's really no claims of notability for the company and no independent coverage of it beyond the fact that it exists and makes clothes.  The company is already mentioned in the article on its founder Chris Brennan and I don't think there's much to merge from this article into that one, but merging it would be better than leaving it as it is.

 * Delete I found nothing to show this company is notable. Apparently it was written by a paid PR person and that's how it reads. Astudent0 (talk) 17:37, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
