This piece of semi-puffery has been around for about 15 years. I tried a news search and found nothing beyond the odd press release. I think it's unsalvageable. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 19:57, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I did not find the reliable sources needed to support the article. I could only find press releases and primary sources. Lightburst (talk) 23:41, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I thought before it was speedy deletion eligible [1] and my mind has not changed. ☆ Bri (talk) 13:00, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The current revision of the article does, as does the original, but I didn't want to check every single revision (as a CSD only applies if that's the case for the entire history); it's been here 15 years, another week won't hurt. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 17:08, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, with sadness. They are clearly important in their field, and I was able to establish that they were founded in 2000 by William "Bill' Dobie, Martin Ertl, and Don Hitchen (most respectable source), but they don't appear to have been written about by independent journalists (I specifically searched the Vancouver Sun as a last try).
