Joseph Spiess Company[edit]

This company has been out of business for 20 years. Even when it was around, it was not known outside of the western suburbs of Chicago. There are few sources for the information and the article is not linked anywhere. I do not believe it is notable enough for an article and it should be deleted.

Prominent coverage of one store's demolition here, with a more local article on the site here . Some local small press book coverage here. I agree there isn't much. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:02, 23 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, I rarely heard of this store when it was open and I live in the area. I was surprised to see it had a wikipedia article. No one I've talked to knows of this store. And the article has uncited information. It needs to be deleted. -- NBA2020 (talk) 19:59, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all the coverage seems to be local. If there are any articles about this company from out of state, then I might support a WP:GNG.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 12:02, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as expected, everything is only trivially localized and there's nothing actually convincingly better. Certainly nothing to suggest new now because the company is closed. SwisterTwister talk 18:45, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
