Zetor

 * Delete substub about a "Czech tractor company". If the notability can be established and the article expanded, I'll change my vote. Revolución 02:19, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * The Zetor company does exist, if that's what you are wondering. It was originally Soviet-era farm tractor manufacturer from Czechoslovakia and apparently still sells. See also Zetor North America. That's unfortunately all I can say about it. - Skysmith 10:41, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. If it's known to be a valid topic, it shouldn't be nominated VfD in the first place. Completed writeup of a small article on this.  -- Un  focused  12:47, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Unfocused, your continuing attacks on comments regarding VfD nominations are not winning you any friends. Neither is your whining on my Talk page.  RickK 18:39, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)
 * Struck out personal attacks, refactored using underline . Note: It is not appropriate to characterize sincere attempts to communicate as "whining" and that is a clear violation of WP:NPA.  Since you won't respond to your talk page, I'm asking you here to please stop. -- Un  focused  18:47, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Stop attacking the motives of people who make VfD listings, and I'll stop deleting your personal attacks. Look, instead of making the attack comment that I crossed out above, all you had to say was, "My Google count is xxx, which, in my view, makes this topic notable."  See the difference?  RickK 20:19, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)
 * Struck out accusations. I have not attacked anyone's motives.  I will consider your suggestion as helpful; however a Google count is often nearly useless.  Reading the first page of Google results, or any one of the first page of hits, should be minimum research before VfD nomination, and I will continue to suggest the same.  However, I will try phrase it more gently.  I would've rather had this entire conversation on either of our talk pages, I wouldn't have cared which.  Please respond when people post complaints on your talk page.  -- Un  focused  20:44, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * RickK, your continuing bullshit is not "winning you any friends" OR showing good practices as an admin. --SPUI (talk) 20:19, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep According to the website, they've been around since 1946. And a tractor company by its very nature is at least a medium-to-large size organisation.  Keep and expand. Andrew Lenahan - St ar bli nd  13:08, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. -- Fingers-of-Pyrex 13:18, 2005 Jun 1 (UTC)
 * Keep Medium-to-large sized corporations are notable. JBurnham 14:46, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, good informative article now. Ty Unfocused. Kappa 18:37, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. There are plenty of Zetor tractors in use around the world, and it's a very well-known, almost iconic brand -- for example, there's a theme restaurant in Helsinki, Finland that's been named after Zetor tractors. It's tongue-in-cheek, sure, but it's real. (And, uh, the food's pretty good there, too.) -- Captain Disdain 20:30, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * keep this too please !Yuckfoo 22:22, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep tractor company with 60 years in existence. Capitalistroadster 00:40, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. Article is in good shape thanks to Unfocused. Capitalistroadster 00:42, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
