Placid Refining

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Simply not notable. All I found, and this isn't in the article I had to find this myself on Google, is the SPR is letting them refine some of it's oil. Most refineries refine oil, it's kinda their thing.

 * The notable thing is that they have borrowed from the SPR, due to Gustav. I just added that fact, and a link to the article on Strategic Petroleum Reserve.   Borrowing from the SPR is uncommon; see the small list of loans on that page.   That makes it notable.  --Wormholio (talk) 19:41, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Fair enough, but "uncommon" doesn't mean "notable". Let's see what the others have to say. padillaH (review me)(help me) 20:01, 12 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree that uncommon is not always notable. Good point.  But loans from the SPR are uncommon, and yet Placid have borrowed several times.  That should be notable.  But I agree, let's see what others think. --Wormholio (talk) 20:15, 12 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete Ok, I fail entirely to see how borrowing from the reserve makes that company notable. A mention in Strategic Petroleum Reserve is more than enough in that case. Equendil Talk 20:25, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
