Adem (1912 car)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Fails WP:GNG. Page says "The car was not commercially successful, and it is possible none were sold" so not notable. EllsworthSchmittendorf (talk) 06:24, 7 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's in other encyclopedias (see references in de:Adem (Automobilhersteller)) - are they reliable sources? 82.132.186.32 (talk) 19:29, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Commercial success of a product is not a WP:GNG requirement. The car brand existed and is listed in reliable sources, which do not need to be available on-line. DeVerm (talk) 20:53, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Wikipedia:Notability (vehicles)#"Types". Assuming the reference was not misrepresented, this car was "offered for commercial sale under a distinct brand name or classification"; that none was sold is, under that essay, irrelevant.

Keep perhaps as this would especially need familiar attention with archives. SwisterTwister talk 06:09, 14 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
