I was going to redirect this to its founder, Sahar Hashemi, but it would irritate me if someone else had done that to an article that I had started. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NCORP. It looks like there was a little press attention early on, but the brand never really took off. Edwardx (talk) 09:59, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Zero hits in GNews, old quotes from newspapers in the 50s and 60s using the term in general in GNewspapers. Oaktree b (talk) 15:43, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Sahar Hashemi. My search found a handful of results in Google News and ProQuest, but they mostly are just passing mentions in articles about Hashemi; I could not find anything that would qualify as significant coverage under WP:NCORP. A redirect to Hashemi's article, where the brand is mentioned, seems like a reasonable (and cheap) alternative to deletion. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:33, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Redirect to Sahar Hashemi#Skinny Candy. Not enough coverage under WP:NCORP for a stand alone article, but a few sources exist for a mention in the article about the founder. Qwaiiplayer (talk) 13:03, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Sahar Hashemi. This single-brand company fails NCORP criteria for establishing notability. HighKing⁺⁺ 12:41, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
