  • Comment: Too suggestive a business profile and the current information and sources is equally promotional or simply not significant; what we need is major independent news that wasn't either announcements or notices or influenced or tied to the company (such as press releases, listings, etc.). Also, notability cannot be inherited as all pages, including businesses, are weighed separately. SwisterTwister talk 17:16, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
