Parkinson's Doncaster Butterscotch Company

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Mostly a copyvio of www.doncasterbutterscotch.com/. Advertisement-like. No secondary sources, especially for the possibly controversial claim of the first use of certain word (butterscotch). Very few non-bot edits in three years. hydrox (talk) 10:01, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Weak delete The original Parkinson's company would be worth an article, but this is not the original company, just a small 7yr old outfit using its name and its notability. Most of the article could be deleted anyway, as off-topic. (Incidentally, I think the claim about "butterscotch" first being used in Doncaster is correct, but can't supply a reference.) 17:22, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete without necessary prejudice to re-creation. Much of the text on the page is identical in substance to the text at http://www.doncasterbutterscotch.com/ and as such should be deleted as copyright violation.  The remainder is unverified claims.  I found nothing with news or books searches.  If the 19th century firm is notable, and I'm open to being convinced that it is, it needs a different article than this. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 21:46, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
