Routine coverage. KT Network of Khaleej Times is a paid article, Gulf News article sounds like a press release with a proper byline (i.e. author). Fails WP:NCORP. US-Verified (talk) 02:22, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There doesn't seem to be a valid reason for the deletion of the article on Hanif Jewellers & Watches, as the content maintains a neutral tone and is supported by several reliable references. Upon conducting a search for their Dubai store, I discovered multiple articles, such as those from The News International and Retail Jeweller World, which further substantiate the existence and significance of the company's international expansion.

The claim that the KT Network of Khaleej Times article is paid seems unfounded and lacks supporting evidence. The articles found in my search, including the one from The News International, do not appear to be paid promotions but rather independent reports. These references contribute to the credibility of the article and reinforce its relevance.

Additionally, the assertion that the Gulf News article reads like a press release merely because it includes a proper byline is unsubstantiated. Bylines are commonly used in journalistic writing to indicate the author responsible for the article. The presence of a byline does not diminish the value or legitimacy of the content.

Considering the aforementioned reputable references and the neutral tone of the article, it is evident that Hanif Jewellers & Watches meets the criteria for inclusion in Wikipedia. Therefore, the claim that it fails WP:NCORP (notability guidelines for corporations) appears unfounded and lacks substantial support. In light of the available evidence, I kindly request a reconsideration of the decision to delete the article. The presence of multiple independent references, such as those mentioned above, should provide sufficient grounds for the article's retention. Thank you for your attention to this matter

Delete: An article by a new editing account about a jewellery company, whose text and references describe announcements of branch openings etc., falling under trivial coverage at WP:CORPDEPTH. (Since the Khaleej Times piece has been discussed in triplicate above, I will mention that it is clearly promotional - "momentous occasion", "carefully crafted pieces that allow you to experience pure art", etc. - as is the item in thenews.com.pk, no matter how glittering the occasion might have been.) This is a company going about its business but without encyclopaedic notability. AllyD (talk) 07:05, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
