Unreferenced since September 2006. A prod was contested in June 2009 by User:ThaddeusB with reason " will properly source article ASAP". No source was given till now. Magioladitis (talk) 20:00, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nominator. We can't wait forever. Stifle (talk) 20:11, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - being unsourced is NOT a valid reason for deletion. As it so happens, I have been much less active on Wikipedia and am just starting to become active again now - however my activity is not relevant. The notability (or lack there of) is the only valid criteria. A quick Gnews or GBooks search will quickly reveal that the company is notable for their market research work. Further sources can be found by searching for the company's other names: Callard Research and Ativo research --ThaddeusB (talk) 20:29, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete unsourced. "It should be removed, aggressively, unless it can be sourced." - Jimbo Wales Dlabtot (talk) 23:06, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep if sources are available, as they seem to be, it can be sourced. note Jimbo's wording: unless it can be sourced. And read the entire email--none of this is negative information about living people. DGG ( talk ) 00:19, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The claim that "sources are available" wears a little thin when the article has lacked sources for a period approaching 3½ years. Stifle (talk) 10:12, 21 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I don't believe it passes WP:ORG.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 01:10, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete lacks reliable sources, claims are not notable RadioFan (talk) 13:38, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. A search of the primary article name and purported alternate company nameplates doesn't reveal any articles in any reliable sources. It doesn't appear to be a matter of waiting for someone to add references, but rather whether any significant ones exist. Transmissionelement (talk) 14:43, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
