[edit] Black Diamond Income Fund

Black Diamond Income Fund (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

I recommend Deletion for this article which is nothing but an advertisement for a non-notable company. The company primarily rents out trailers for the Canadian oil fields. The article has subsisted in the Wikipedia since August. It has no links to it except for the four redirect pages, which should also be deleted.

  • Delete, because it doesn't seem to pass the corporate notability guideline - Google picks up a few things, but the sources don't seem independent of the company, thereby failing criteria 1. (And there's no way it meets #2 or #3.) Furthermore, the article is replete with advertising jargon, but lacks content. Finally, it's unsourced. Picaroon 01:21, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per above as well as one of the only wikilinks is for a scottish trade unionist who died in 1965. ha.--Tainter 02:14, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Comment That does not change anything with regard to notability does it? --Bejnar 21:23, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete- As per nom, non-notable corporations do not need Wiki articles. Darthgriz98 20:08, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Scienceman123 talk 21:20, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom, I don't think being in the Toronto Stock Exchange guarantees you notability - The RSJ (Sign my book) (CCD) 23:30, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:N. No publications have been cited except routine sites like Yahoo Finance and this reference doesn't show a single article or analyst covering the company (headlines consist only of a single routine press release on earnings). Absent evidence that someone covers or writes about this company, WP:N isn't met. Can reconsider if sources demonstrating notability are produced. --Shirahadasha 03:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
