Zeus Numerix
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

The outcome of the previous nomination was "no concencus". The company is, in my view, not satisfying notability. Despite the previous AfD discussion, the article still has no reliable references. There are, after the company's five years of existence, only five news articles to be found in a Google News search. They are in: In the previous AfD discussion, three additional links were provided:, , and. However, it turned out that the first and third of these are copies from each other, and originate from a blog site. The second is a press release by Zeus Numerix itself. In conclusion: "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", as required by WP:N, is lacking. -- Crowsnest (talk) 12:11, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Chemie.de — just a copy of the Wikipedia article, as it was somewhere in 2006.
 * Press release by the Press Trust of India — according to this site it appeared in the Economic Times, August 23, 2007. It is a short article, including two lines on Zeus Numerix.
 * Business Standard, India — mentioning Zeus Numerix once, in a list with four others
 * Rediff News, India — one sentence on Zeus Numerix
 * l'Expansion, France — also mentioning Zeus Numerix once. Two sentences in a two-page article.
 * Comment I have partially cleaned up the article and added a couple of sources. Salih  ( talk ) 18:32, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
 * The article in The Hindu Business Line, August 24, 2007, is identical to the Press Trust of India article above. The article in Fluid Power, April-June 2005, is a new one, and the only one (until now) which has the company as its subject. Fluid Power was published (it was merged with other magazines) by the Times Group in India. -- Crowsnest (talk) 18:46, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
