 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I'm filing this after a contested G4 request. The rationale of the previous AfD was "This is spam masquerading as an article. The subject may be notable but this text doesn't do it justice at all." The article was replaced soon after deletion (its earlier history has been restored at my request). While there are substantial changes from the original version, there are also substantial similarities. &mdash; rybec   17:22, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment: I fail to see a reason for deletion in this nomination. Are you saying the article is advertisement spam which if it is can also be rewritten? The group does seem to have many subsidiaries and one common article for them all is not a very bad idea. §§ Dharmadhyaksha §§ {T/C} 18:19, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes. When recreating an article that was deleted after an AfD, the deficiencies that led to the deletion of the earlier version should be remedied (CSD). &mdash; rybec   22:26, 11 September 2013 (UTC)
 * What part of the article is advertisement to you? §§ Dharmadhyaksha §§ {T/C} 05:19, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * "Delivers quality education", "one [of] the first to develop organized work space", and "one of the leading manufacturers" promote the topic subjectively. &mdash; rybec   05:39, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Removed them. Any more? §§ Dharmadhyaksha §§ {T/C} 07:17, 12 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, KTC (talk) 00:38, 13 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep There are many sources for this article, e.g. Piramal group to spread lifestyle disease awareness, Piramal Group's realty fund picks up 24% in Flagship Infra, Piramal group makes open offer for 20 pc stake in Dawn Mills, Piramal hikes stake to 11% in Vodafone India unit, aside from the citations in the article itself. Clearly meets the GNG and CORPDEPTH. --Cerebellum (talk) 18:09, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep I am generally very reluctant to keep the usual spam article on industrial concerns, but this article is not spam: it's encyclopedic, non-promotional, and the firm is notable. It's very good to see this sort of topic handled properly for once.  DGG ( talk ) 21:01, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
