This company page fails to meet WP:NCORP and WP:CORPDEPTH, as most of its citations focus on trivial coverage according to WP:ORGTRIV. TCBT1CSI (talk) 12:07, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge/redirect to Sun Life Financial#India Most of the article here is superlative and promotional filler, while the section in Sun Life about it is more focused and neutral. Nate (chatter) 16:20, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I have made substantial improvements and added better sources and information. Aditya Birla Sun Life is the second-biggest insurance company in the country and was the first to introduce the ULIP plan. It won many awards and gets talked about in the media a lot. I have also added some controversies for neutrality. Its notable and meets NCORP.ChaiSK (talk) 13:02, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I don't see any improvements in this article at all; it remains full of pointless filler about a merger that never happened or came close to closing (and doesn't speak anything about how Sun Life itself thought about the idea), and there remains only one blue link in the entire body of the article below the lede, leaving the reader completely lost and confused about what on earth is being talked about here (what is ULIP?), a complete dismissal of their Internet presence (who goes to a branch to buy insurance? Branch count is nigh pointless these days), and the usual financial figures that are already out of date and I can easily ascertain will not be updated further. And it also remains an orphan article with no incoming links. Nate (chatter) 21:02, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
AFD is not intended for cleanup. If the financial figures are outdated or the article lacks Wikilinks, or if the article is orphaned because it is not linked to any other Wikipedia page, all these issues can be easily addressed through discussion on the article's talk page or by using various templates to highlight these issues. We can either resolve these issues ourselves or leave them to others. Wikipedia is a collaborative project. Regarding financials, there are numerous articles available on the internet about financials, and they can be easily updated or expanded upon. As you mentioned, "What is ULIP," ULIP stands for Unit-Linked Insurance Plan, which is an insurance product that offers both insurance and investment benefits, and it is already Wikilinked. Anyone can click on this blue link to learn more about it. These issues can be resolved quite easily, and they should not be grounds for merging the article with another Wikipedia article.ChaiSK (talk) 12:01, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The reason is promotion and incorrect talk. Clear. GQO (talk) 6:35, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
GQO , this comment makes no sense. Liz Read! Talk! 06:33, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Per WP:HEY. It is among the top insurance companies listed in the NIFTY 50 index. Being part of NIFTY 50 itself is more than enough to justify notability.--Abualsarmad (talk) 01:18, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Incorrect validation. The company is not included in any Indian stock exchange (BSE or NSE); being part of the NIFTY 50 is highly unlikely. This vote could be a last-minute effort to rescue this article from deletion. TCBT1CSI (talk) 13:45, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: As per Abualsarmad & WP:HEY, the sources added to the article demonstrate notability. Nitish shetty (talk) 12:21, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    A vote in quick succession, attempting to defend/justify the previous 'keep' vote which came with an improper validation; without conducting own independent research to confirm that the company is genuinely not listed on any Indian stock exchange (failing WP:LISTED) and therefore not included in the NIFTY 50. Also, the recent revisions made by the article's creator are merely superficial changes and do not meet the standards outlined in WP:HEY. TCBT1CSI (talk) 14:00, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • It doesn't inspire confidence in the article's notability when keep advocates just... make things up? The company is not in the NIFTY 50, as can very easily be checked. Not sure what Abualsarmad was thinking here? – Teratix 14:25, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge/redirect to Sun Life Financial#India seems like the sensible option as WP:ATD, none of the references in the article meet GNG/WP:NCORP criteria for establishing notability. HighKing++ 10:03, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Sun Life Financial#India. The closer needs to know whether it is merge or redirect. I think the first two paragraphs of the history could be merged with the target without unbalancing the target and without getting too specific. This is a merge then. The merge edsum in page history will also act as a flag to available page history should the target be expanded in the future. It is not notable for an article of its own as we do not have sufficient sources or evidence of notability under NCORP. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 20:25, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
