  • Keep - Company meets WP:GNG and previously publicly traded before being acquired. Here are some references [1], [2], [3], [4]. There are a ton of brief mentions which can help fill out content in the article in order to make it more than just a list of projects. If the article is kept, I am more than willing to do the article cleanup. --CNMall41 (talk) 21:35, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep company was listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange between 2007 and 2011 before being bought out, so it has quite a bit of coverage especially during that period [5] [6] [7]. The article is poorly written but shouldn't be a reason to delete. --  R45  talk! 20:48, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The article is not well-sourced at all, but notability and such attach to the topic of the article, not the article as it is now. As WP:NPOSSIBLE reminds us: "The absence of citations in an article...does not indicate that a subject is not notable. " This was/is a public company with a ton of editorially independent discussion about it.--69.204.153.39 (talk) 20:14, 10 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Company is notable, secondary reliable sources regarding the company have been produced (see above), and it passes WP:GNG and WP:NCOMPANY. I agree that the article is not great, but this is completely irrelevant in the AFD process. I would take some time and brush up on WP:N WP:V, and WP:AFD before nominating more articles - this article is a clear 'Keep'. ~Oshwah~ (talk) (contribs) 20:36, 10 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
