I've had three companies pop up on my radar recently. Two I've already written about in Pointless deletions. Another has shown up on deletion review where there is all kind of petty quibbling over a company that on its website gives actual case studies--which I've no reason to doubt are accurate and are in any case verfiable--involving really major customers such as Camden Borough Council, BP Upstream and so on. There is some discussion but it seems mostly to be along the lines of "well it doesn't meet [NAME OF STRINGENT GUIDELINE] so it was a valid deletion." Why are we deleting stuff like this for such pusilanimous reasons?
Working for Camden Council does not mean your company deserves an entry on wikipedia. Accurate and verifiable it may be. We are not a collection of random facts.
Many of my friends and their companies have worked for Camden. It doesnt matter. They should not have entries.
