Parts Models

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Hand models form a notable occupational niche, but there is no evidence that this company is notable. The references are all slightly disguised PR. The argument for inclusion would have to be that they were selected for interviewing because they're the leading firm, but since none of the sources seems to actually say that, it's at least as likely that they were interviewed because they have the most energetic PR agents. Most of this is based on interviews with them. Sometimes they can be usable, but here they are used as a device for the article to include quotes from the owner. I'm open to the possibility that the company is actually notable , but then someone should write the article who won't write it as a press release. DGG ( talk ) 06:34, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete. I found several sources discussing parts modelling as a concept (e.g. [1][2][3]), and there may be enough to support an article on parts modelling in general, but there seems little coverage of this company. --Michig (talk) 10:39, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
