  • Comment: The problem with the sources is that they are all just routine coverage of the company, such as moves or aquisitions. This is not enough to establish notability, as it is just routine coverage of the company. We need to see third party sources that discuss the actual company not just routine movements in the company. Sulfurboy (talk) 17:47, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
