Westech

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No real indication of significance. Lots of references but they all barely mention the company. Lots WP:PEACOCK statements such as "become global players" or "famous films". Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 21:30, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Hi. I am the author of this article. I began this article because having watched Catching the Sun I wanted to find out more about the company featured, but it was not already featured on wikipedia. This company is notable for several reasons including the fact that it was one of the first developers of solar technology. I believe that this fact alone would be notable if not the fact that a film made about them I am sure they are notable of a mention in wikipedia. The reason I made the page with several different companies is because there are different companies which operate under the name which are also notable, some more so than others. Rather than have a separate page for each part of the Westech companies I thought it would make sense to have a single page. I agree that the page needed alot of work. I am new to wikipedia, but I thought that was the idea. We create a page about a topic of note then other people add information, citations and links to it. It would be great if we have some solar technology engineers and other experts who could add information to this page about this fascinating topic. The company is already mentioned in several wiki articles so it would make sense to have a page where they can all link to. I really dont think deleting the page would be of benefit.

 * Delete Article is close to a disambiguation page, but none of the entries are notable companies with WP articles. No real reason for the article to exist. MB 21:52, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
