Vista Outdoor Inc.

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

non-notable new company, fails WP:CORP, all references are press releases / standard coverage of separation from Alliant Techsystems, no notable coverage found about this company itself, article creator has COI with company Deunanknute (talk) 14:49, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I think news coverage of the company has already been quite significant.Singaporebobby (talk) 16:14, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
 * What coverage meets the notability criteria? Deunanknute (talk) 16:25, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Vista is a massive company that owns dozens of the largest gun and sporting goods brands that ATK spun off. This is like starting an AfD for Microsoft or IBM.  The spin-off just happened, so it's natural that most of the coverage right now is related to that.  If there are COI problems, they need to be edited out, because this is clearly a notable company.

 * Keep. These two sources have a depth of coverage greater than many company articles I've seen: I doubted a good article could be written on this new company, but I'm surprised at how well it's turned out. Rezin (talk) 23:32, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

 * KEEP. The article is sourced, and is about a company that is traded on the New York Stock Exchange.  Definitely meets general notability criteria for an article.  N2e (talk) 22:33, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
