Contested deletion

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because this company is engaging in lawsuits with the Guardian, The Sunday Times and others regarding a libel case that is likely to be big news. I will add those references now.--151.16.180.8 (talk) 16:43, 14 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This page should not be speedily deleted because this company is engaged in libel lawsuits with the Guardian, Sunday Times and others which is an important and significant case. I shall add those references nowRogerbreak (talk) 16:45, 14 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, Wikipedia is not a newspaper and such law suits do nothing to establish the company's notability, which is a requirement for inclusion in the encyclopedia. Philg88 ^♦talk 17:34, 14 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I diasgree. I think it's a notable company according to the definitions of Wikipedia. This is a sizable company doing business around the world, engaged in significant lawsuits with major UK media outlets. I think the world needs to know about companies that have such influence and clout. Rogerbreak ^♦talk 23:15, 14 July 2014 (ECT)

Please read the notability guideline for companies to understand what notability means for a corporate enterprise. The current references do not represent significant coverage in reliable independent sources and thus do nothing to establish the notability of the company. The lawsuit coverage doesn't change that, based on the criteria that Wikipedia is not a newspaper and alleged illegal acts do not add weight to notability.

On a separate note, copying the exact markup code of my signature, as you have done, is not considered good practice. Please consider changing it and see this guideline for more details. Philg88 ^♦talk 06:42, 15 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
