Supra (shoes)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Company with no evidence of notability. Poorly referenced. Most claims for fame are by association with others.--Dmol (talk) 05:22, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. Lacks coverage in reliable sources. All I can find are press releases. Pburka (talk) 15:35, 29 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep This article seems pretty neutral to me and not like its written as an advertisement. Though the article is short and could be referenced more thoroughly, there is enough substancial material for it to stay and be improved upon.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mguo30 (talk • contribs) 04:03, 31 October 2011 (UTC)  — Mguo30 (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

The article has been edited. It is now more well organized and more sources have been added. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mguo30 (talk • contribs) 05:24, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
 * No, it is not well sourced. Of the 19 listed "references", 16 of them are from the company and the other 3 are from an industry publication.--Dmol (talk) 05:56, 1 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep I have tried to find appropriate notable citations and I admit they are weak, but the company has some traction with the skateboarding community. This article will improve over time and we have lots of room here on Wikipedia. I have no ax to grid. I am a 51 year old who does not skateboard or wear their shoes.
