[edit] Anton Productions
The article provides no sources other than the company's own website. As such, this article fails WP:V through WP:RS, as a company cannot be the sole source of information about itself. Incidentally, even were this not a WP:V issue, it would certainly not be WP:NPOV, as a company cannot be a neutral party in reporting upon itself. Since this article does not attest to Anton Productions' presence on any ranking indices or use in calculating stock market indices, it also fails WP:CORP. The primary contributor to this article is User:Dickdarkly, is, as the article attests, the webmaster for the site in question. His involvement is thus a Conflict of Interest.
This is my first deletion nomination, so I apologize for any procedural errors I might have made.
I am also nominating the following articles for deletion, following the recommendation of WP:AFD as regards bundling: "An article about a company/organization and a second article about its founder, who has done nothing else of note."
- Dick Darkly
- J. Anton

- Weak keep of Anton Productions, which employs at least five actresses that Wikipedia considers notable. Delete Dick Darkly and J. Anton, which contain no information not found in Anton Productions. The article appears NPOV and I am not too worried about conflict of interest issues, although a template may be appropriate. --Hyperbole 03:11, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
- Keep as per Hyperbole. Trollderella 17:51, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete fails to meet WP:CORP or WP:WEB criteria. Merely employing people that meet WP:BIO doesn't make a strong case for keeping this article.--Isotope23 18:48, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
- Comment It is possible for someone to write neutrally about themselves, if difficult. This could also be neutralized by other people contributing to it. However, Delete since NN and NV. 170.215.83.4 20:26, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
- It is possible, but to do so requires (as per User:Uncle G/On notability#Writing_about_subjects_close_to_you) multiple non-trivial sources independent of the subject, and thus for the primary notability criterion (of both WP:CORP and WP:BIO) to be satisfied. If the primary notability criterion isn't satisfied, then it isn't possible. And to show that it is possible, one needs to cite sources to show that the PNC is satisfied.
