A online retailer of sparkplugs and vehicle electrics, tagged for non-notability and unreferenced for over 6 months with no improvement. I cannot see how this is anything other than advertising and propose it be deleted. Biker Biker (talk) 07:02, 2 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak delete Policy still applies, and policy does not support deleting articles on retailers merely for being commercial. Nor should we delete an article because the retailer is too small - that leads to a whole subjective quagmire of edit-warring over just where the cut-off would be. However we do still depend on WP:N, and the principle of coverage by independent sources, which this article is lacking. If Practical Classics (magazine) or Classic Tractor were to mention them to the slightest level, I wouldn't have a problem with this article. As it is though, I can't justify it.

- Delete - I can not find any sources that help to establish notability. I could not find any news hits and the web hits are forum discussions about the company. ~~ GB fan ~~ talk 09:31, 2 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. This is about an online business that sells spark plugs. No indication of historical, technical, or cultural significance. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 18:36, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
