The result was delete. The "delete" side argues that the sources provided are insufficient, and the "keep" side does not attempt to rebut this.  Sandstein  10:28, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Subject lacks WP:SIGCOV. From search, results are very scanty, the ones found are not reliable. Sources provided in the page make no mention of the company apart from this one that has few mentions of the company, the rest are listings on Company House website.

 * Delete a non notable company. Devokewater (talk) 18:52, 4 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Zero WP:SIGCOV on this company.  Some mentions, per the RS in the article, but are really WP:MILL from their deals.  HAve a feeling that this article was not written in good faith, and is a platform to raise issues on the company (i.e. a hit-piece).  Regardless, fail of NCORP.

 * Comment - I had closed this, evidently very very shortly after brought some sources up for discussion.  Pinging all participants, , , .   78.26  (spin me / revolutions) 22:56, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
 * No problem . I had seen most of 's hits but felt they were more MILL pieces in mostly trade publictions on deals that the company was involved in, and with minimal discussion about the company except to mention their name (i.e. hard to build an article about the company from them).  Running through them:
 * #1 Trade Only Today, trade magazine that only mentions their name once as a buyer of a yacht company, Fairline.
 * #2 Yachting and Boating World, trade magaine on same deal as above on Fairline, and more like a press release.
 * #3 The Telegraph, proper RS but the article is about the same deal as above, and only gives the company passing mention; really about the collapse of Fairline.
 * #4 Furniture News, trade magazine press release from another funiture-related deal.
 * From my perspective, these are MILL pieces. I could find no decent RS doing even one proper SIGCOV on the company per NCORP, just mentions in mostly trade publicatons from deals. Couldn't see how we could yet construct an article on the company from these.  Others may disagree with me however. thanks. Britishfinance (talk) 10:31, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
 * thanks for the ping, i haven't actually participated in this afd, i just fixed up 's entry that had been affecting the 27 june afd log. Coolabahapple (talk) 06:52, 17 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Comment, before bringing to AFD my concerns were exactly the same as u|Britishfinance summary of the sources. It's just not enough. Lapablo (talk) 10:27, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment, thank you Ritchie333 for highlighting these sources, however I'm in agreement with Britishfinance, the company is not notable and should be deleted. Regards --Devokewater @  10:12, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
 * What specifically is “not enough”? Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  07:53, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
