Servicing Stop

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

Seemingly non-notable company; unable to find reliable resources to substantiate notability. Primefac (talk) 18:00, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have added a reference from the Daily Mail further to the BBC reference added - would this not be enough? EDIT I have also added a published ruling from the Advertising Standards Agency Cwhitty83 (talk) 08:24, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The Daily Mail article is (I would strongly guess) native advertising for the GPS tracking system. The ASA ruling, while interesting, does not really help towards making the company notable. Primefac (talk) 10:10, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Is the Daily Mail not a reliable independent source? There is no evidence to suggest the tracking company paid the Daily Mail to publish the story, it also featured in The Sun and Sunday Times Driving Section although I am having trouble locating the links to this. The ASA ruling reinforces the fact the company has an advertising presence in the UK and whilst not everyone company that advertise on TV and Radio has the right to a Wiki Page the fact that this company has featured in Dragons Den and Dragons Den where are they now (BBC) I believe suggests there is enough notability.

delete. Most of this article is fluff. Almost everything that could verify notability of the subject is unverified, while most of the referenced material doesn't speak to the notability of this company. Reference 1 is about the legislation and doesn't mention the company. References 2 and 4 are about the programmes the directors appeared in, not the company and are not in-depth coverage. Reference 3 is a press-release and so is not independent coverage. Reference 5 is a reliable source for the statement about the advert, but having a single ASA judgement against you does nothing to establish notability. Reference 6 again doesn't speak about the notability of the company at all - Servicing Stop barely gets a mention and rightly so as they had almost nothing to do with this (mechanic breaks the speed limit while collecting a car for repair). The Daily Mail is only a borderline reliable source, as it's a tabloid newspaper with a reputation for very heavily spinning stories towards a sensationalist angle that supports their political agenda.
