Prod tag removed without any improvements. Lacks in-depth coverage in reliable sources. Most of sources are just funding announcement. Sanketio31 (talk) 16:11, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Did the nominator bother looking for sources? This is a large investment company, managing over 100 billion A$. It is a listed company worth 8.41 Billion. It is part of the S&P/ASX 200 index. A simple search in google news shows plenty of in depth sources: [1][2][3][4][5].--Eostrix (^{🦉 hoot} _hoot🦉) 16:27, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

None of these sources supports GNG and especially NCORP. Press releases sources like https://finance.yahoo.com/news/magellan-financial-group-asx-mfg-235735931.html with clear promo headings like (Magellan Financial Group (ASX:MFG) Has Gifted Shareholders With A Fantastic 197% Total Return On Their Investment) are not reliable and will not help here, in additon other sources sources you listed like AFR and FinancialStandard both are behind pay wall. This will need reliable sources to pass notability criteria. Sanketio31 (talk) 16:42, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User:Sanketio31, you would do well to read both the sources provided and policy. This nomination is comically flawed, to the point this could be closed as a Speedy Keep, you should withdraw. The source you claim is PR, is actually an analyst report that is also critical (e.g. "Investors in Magellan Financial Group had a tough year, with a total loss of 27% (including dividends), against a market gain of about 4.0%."). As for sources beyond paywalls, they are perfectly fine for notability. Australian Financial Review (AFR) and Financial Standard are precisely the sort of independent reliable sources that demonstrate notability. Coverage of Magellan isn't limited to just these five sources, it is comically easy to pull several additional independent, reliable, in-depth sources covering this multi-billion A$ company.--Eostrix (^{🦉 hoot} _hoot🦉) 19:43, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep, as article currently stands, but Keep if additional independent sources can be added in line with WP:SIRS, "completely independent of the article subject". Paywalls not a problem. I couldn't see anything from the AFR though, just the SMH. Meticulo (talk) 00:17, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. As stated above, Magellan is a large and significant funds manager in Australia. Article content is based on factual statements from the company's financial statements and its history. Mentioned many times in financial media including the AFR, examples: [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Check to the King (talk) 13:25, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
