This article has superficial referenciness but it turns out that the references don't support the notability of the company (for example, "In February 1999, SITEX became the first and only uniform rental plant in the United States to have all textile processes ISO 9002 certified" is sourced to a Houston Chronicle article describing ISO9002 but not mentioning SITEX, and to the ISO 9000 definition on ISO's homepage). The user has fewer than 200 edits which include writing a small number of articles that appear to be promotional, one of which (on a firm of ambulance chasers) was submitted at AFC and deleted, the other (on a quack) I submitted and is also heading to delete. The crappy state of this article could be a result of inexperience, but it looks more like an attempt to paint a minor family form as more significant than it actually is.

• @JzG: "Crappy state of the article" seems a bit harsh. I will look for a few more citations and remove the ISO9000 line you've questioned but this organization is pretty noteworthy in the Kentucky and Indiana areas they operate in. It isn't a commercial article or focused on the products but the impact they've had on the economic state of that areas as they have taken over several other businesses and acquired a good bit of the operations of organizations. I'll make sure to pass any articles I feel deserve to be included through the AFC in the future to avoid eating up editors' and contributors' time or making wiki look bad. Thanks.

• Weak Keep. The sources are decent. SITEX is notable enough for a stand alone article IMO. QuackGuru (talk) 18:19, 1 March 2016 (UTC)

*Keep. As a sailor, this corporation is a big-time player in the marine electronics industry. Sorry. Wrong SiTex. Apologies.   Aloha27  talk  00:01, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

• Delete and draft and userfy if needed as my searches actually found nothing better. SwisterTwister talk 07:48, 4 March 2016 (UTC)
