Star Licks

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

This seems like a borderline A7, unnotable company. Indeed, the google search isn't promising. Can anyone corroborate the claims of the artist portfolio? If so, does that make it notable? I'm just looking for any third-party citations and refs. I can't find them and the article doesn't include any. There also seems to be a blatant WP:COI here, as the editor of the page included his email address in the edit summary... the email address of the person associated with the website. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 16:13, 1 July 2010 (UTC)


 * 'If you Google “Star Licks,” the first 50 pages reference this company – hence, how can this be considered an “unnotable company”? RustyWard (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:01, 1 July 2010 (UTC).
 * Yes, you get results, but are they relevant? This is similar to some AFDs where a company is in the top 50 hits, but all those hits are just directories of companies. Are there any interviews or reviews or any significant coverage of the company? YouTube links and passing mentions don't count. If you can add any of those types of links to the article, it should probably stay. As it is, they don't exist so that's why we are here at AFD. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 17:05, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. Not notable.    GregJackP    Boomer!  19:34, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Is this a request for deletion by the author? &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 01:04, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete - the COI/advert issues are serious, but given the association with many notable musicians, even a single good ref would be enough to make this a keep for me. VQuakr (talk) 03:11, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
