Telecential

Delete and redirect to Virgin Media. Damnit! I was getting excited because I had pressed "random article" without finding a delete worthy article almost countless times (it normally only takes 5-6 times). All info can be incorporated into Virgin Media, no need to have a sep. article Ļıßζېấשּׂ~ۘ Ώƒ ﻚĢęخ (talk) 09:23, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Don't worry mate, you can still be excited - This one's not worthy of deletion either! While I am not an expert in the subject, it appears to have been a large(ish) cable company in the UK, and while it has been purchased now, when it was independant, it was notable. Therefore it is notable now and valid for inclusion. Once you get past the press releases, there are some decent Google News articles about it, and i'm checking some other sources now. I will flag the article for rescue and see if it can be brought up to standard. Fosnez (talk) 10:04, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I've added some sources, bearing in mind that they company was merged in the early 1990's it is harder than I thought to find sources I can varify - there are a lot of "do you remember telecential" style forum posts... Anyway, I will leave it for rescue and see if anyone else can find sources, but I believe it is notable. Fosnez (talk) 10:31, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Virgin Media is a bloated article as is, no need to push more content into it. NTL should probably be spun out from it, and merging there might then be an option. Taemyr (talk) 11:32, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
