Wilkuro

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article on a non-notable brand name of overshoes/galoshes. Article is basically an advertisement with references and links to press releases, the company website and other sites where you can buy this brand. I would be happy with a redirect to galoshes (I had originally done this, but the redirect was reverted multiple times and I was accused of vandalism), but if this is not thought to be a helpful redirect, it should be deleted.

 * Comment - The editor Stygmah would seem to be affiliated to Wilkuro as per 1. I quote: "Wilkuro Safety Toes is still working with the initial brand created by Big Vox, then known as Stygmah Design Consultants..." I'm just looking to see what sources there are for this.

 * Comment 2 The problem is that there are SO many retail sites in Google (that site really needs to offer an option to filter out all commercial/selling sites). Thought I'd found something at 1 but it turns out to be a re-posted company press release. This is a tough one though because I can see their products seem to be widely distributed and sold. I've tried various searches to try and filter out the commercial sites, but not really had any luck other than a blog which turns out to be affilated to a commercial site itself now I look again more closely. If they are so successful though, there MUST be something out there. I hesitate to recommend delete, but I can't really say keep either. Mabalu (talk) 10:20, 15 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete as promo and for lack of reliable independent sources. Peridon (talk) 14:56, 23 October 2012 (UTC)
