Comments:

Many thousands of companies (perhaps hundreds of thousands) are important in one sector or another in one or more countries. Perhaps each of these companies should, ideally, have at least a stub. But I doubt that most companies should have more than a stub. In any event, I don't think that an article about a company should be a high priority, unless the company has some significance greater than its importance within a sector (e.g., prominence in the news, cultural significance, or unusually high employment). I'd recommend that Yarnalgo create the basic articles -- or longer articles, if Yarnalgo feels it is justified -- about Brine and last week's nominee STX. Yarnalgo clearly has an interest and some knowledge about these companies; who better to create the article? -Scottwiki 16:49, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you Scottwiki, I have will do this and all ready have started an STX article. I won't put any more company articles on COTW.--Yarnalgo 22:30, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't want to dissuade you from putting any company articles on COTW. If you think that a company meets the criteria for COTW, then I hope that you'll nominate it.  In any event, good job in starting the STX article!  -Scottwiki 03:54, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
