Created almost entirely by an account with a conflict of interest. Also, not notable. drt1245 (talk) 21:52, 1 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: While nom's allegation of COI may be correct I see no evidence of presentation of issue at WP:AN/COI merely an unsigned Template:Un-coi notice on the user's talk page less that ten minutes before raising this AfD which gives them little time to respond. As this is the primary reason of raising the AfD nom. risks a claim for a WP:SKCRIT under criteria #2a, perhaps especially as no courtesy AfD notification was given on the talk page. That said the referencing on the article is a mess of linkrot with links not currently supporting the claims and other links usurped. There may have been a real protocol/technology supported by multiple manufacturers behind this at one point not so long ago but I have not researched sufficiently to call that or not.

Weak soft delete: I'm not impressed by aspects of the AfD nomination but I can't be bothered myself to try to recover/verify the references for the article and/or search for new ones. Should improved WP:RS emerge I'd swing to keep.Djm-leighpark (talk) 08:24, 6 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: An article for the company that created DC-BUS has been deleted (article was created by the same COI accounts). Looking into notability for DC-BUS, here is what I found:

Two books that talk about DC-Bus, but were written by Yamar's marketing department
Another book with a passing reference (unclear authorship)
Three white papers written by Yamar employees
One bachelor's thesis that used a DC-BUS part

I don't think this meets WP:GNG. -drt1245 (talk) 18:48, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Lacks the independent sources required to demonstrate notability. - MrOllie (talk) 18:59, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
