Rorgue[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article on a French manufacturer of cooking stoves/ranges. Notability isn't really asserted in the article - being a 100+ year old company doesn't imply notability. The Daily Mail article mentions the company once as a brand name of an installed appliance. The LR link (in French) is about Rorgue solely, but (a) it's one article, and (b) it's not clear to me whether it meets the guidelines for secondary sources. The two external links are to a reseller and a corporate overview respectively. Google didn't turn up much. Mr. Vernon (talk) 01:44, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. In addition to the LR link, there are some mentions available online that really hint towards notability: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]. Based on those I think it's very likely there's additional coverage available offline — Frankie (talk) 15:21, 13 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep - Just meets WP:GNG per the sources presented above by User:Frankie. Northamerica1000^(talk) 20:08, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep – There does indeed appear to be some significant coverage. I also see this in the Birmingham Post, this in the Mail on Sunday, and (offline only) "The man's guide to really, really big stuff", Margolis, Jonathan. Sunday Times [London (UK)] 03 Oct 2004: 83.
