Mascarello[edit]

Unnotable bus company. I tried to search for references but I could find none in English, which if notable there would have to be some English references. Tavix (talk) 23:33, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. If it's a Brazilian company (which it is) and has most of its sales in Brazil, then I wouldn't require it to have English references, since its activities would be mostly of interest to Portuguese-speaking people. But, in fact, there are a few English references anyway. See [1], [2]. I am not saying that these references are enough to establish notability. I am saying that a Portuguese-speaking editor would be better equipped to assess notability based on the existence or nonexistence of Portuguese-language sources. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:44, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment agree with Metro, and I'll poke Ecoleetage to see if he can help with sourcing. I think there is information available and hopefully it can be found before the AfD is done, because right now it certainly is speedy eligible. TravellingCari 14:11, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Cari, watch where you're poking me -- I bruise easily! :) Seriously, this appears to be a legit operation. I added a couple of English-language links; the Brasil media links are business and transport trade mags that look fine to me. In regard to Brasil-based bus builders, they seem notable. So, Keep Ecoleetage (talk) 14:46, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Ecoleetage. A Google search shows that this company is indeed notable. Cunard (talk) 05:46, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
