This was listed for Prod as " Effectively unreferenced article about a non-notable business, another international consulting and system integration company that specialises in Business Intelligence (BI), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), e-Business and Enterprise Information Management (EIM)... (MEGO)."
Before we delete a company that is in Euronext and has a p. on the frWP, I'd prefer to have a community decision. DGG ( talk ) 01:15, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete as prodder. The English and French articles are mirrors of each other. Both are referenced only to a business directory. I found nothing that looked like a reliable source actually being about this. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 05:40, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep DGG said "non-notable business" but also pointed out WP:LISTED which notes that publicly traded companies on major exchanges are notable.Euronext is the 5th largest stock exchange in the world and owned by the NYSE Euronext. WP:LISTED is not a sure thing, BUT in less than a minute of conducting WP:BEFORE, I found sources about the company: Reuters, Journal du Net (fr), 01net, Bloomberg, Yahoo Finance, IBN, Digital Journal, BusinessWeek, Israel Business Arena, Boursier.com (fr), Le Point (fr). I won't list every source I found, that's not the point of AFDs, but suffice to say a company that has €249 million euros ($325 million dollars US) in capitalization in a year and 2,800 employees will likely have coverage and it does. Article's in horrible shape, but those are not WP:DEL-REASONs. Mkdwtalk 08:38, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep: per Mkdw. I'm not so sure about the stock-exchange argument, but the news coverage implies notability. הסרפד (call me Hasirpad) (formerly R——bo) 02:42, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
