Page does not appear to pass WP:CORP. This is a problem. WLU (talk) 00:21, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

You may be right, but this should be subject to discussion. This is certainly not a candidate for speedy deletion. I'm not affiliated with this company, but they certainly have brand recognition with me. There exists a fine German article, which mentions that the company employs over 4000 people, which is more households than many of our articles on small US towns have, and certainly more notable than the album articles a recent RfA candidate lists on their brag sheet. — Sebastian 01:07, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

After some more research, I don't mind deleting this article. It appears the original author only dumped the text there (as a copyvio from http://www.sartorius-mechatronics.com/index.php?id=6324 and related pages) and left. The text I wrote there instead isn't worth keeping, either. So there isn't anything lost, in terms of content. For me, it boils donw to only thing: It distresses me to see how many speedy deletions counter two core principles I believe in: WP:AGF and WP:BITE. Maybe I'll notify the author with a friendly note and delete the article myself. — Sebastian 03:53, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
