Victory Carriers

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Frankly, I don't believe any of this article. I saw this new article today, and I've done some recent cleanup. However, after looking through the original author's references, I found them all to be bogus. Further, I did some google searches for things, and I cannot verify any of this information about Alexander-Goulandris. The article is oddly written: why is there so much about the owner and not the company?

All I am sure of is that the company exsits. I don't really know if they are notable, because I cannot find any valid sources. Most of the information in the article about Alexander-Goulandris seems like WP:HOAX to me; it leads me to question any of the article at all. For example, I can find no record of this person on the Forbes billionaire list, yet the article says he's on there.

Overall, this nomination is based on lack of reliable third-party sources, and findings of invalid/missourced original information. If someone can prove any of the assertions in the article to be valid, then by all means keep the article. But I had no luck doing so. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 00:44, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

I am truly disappointed at your final decision, but it doesn't leave much room for debate. Had the article been read properly, it clearly shows that Mr. alexander-Goulandris was NOT featured in the Forbes listings. Furthermore, the references were Lloyd's Registry, the benchmark of the shipping industry sources. —Preceding unsigned comment added by IASONASHIOS (talk • contribs) 01:55, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

I will save the trouble and delete this as I am rather angered at the research I've put into this being called. bogus. —Preceding unsigned comment added by IASONASHIOS (talk • contribs) 02:04, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
