I am nominating this for deletion because of concern about the company's notability. There are no sources and I coulnd not find any reliable, independent ones via google. Only sites selling its products and wikipedia (which is the second hit). Does not appear to meet the WP:CORP guidelines or to have other substantial claims to notability, just reasonable popularity in its market. Eluchil404 12:57, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

• Weak Delete - the long list of famous clients would constitute evidence of notability, but it's unverified. No evidence of coverage in third-party independent sources to establish notability per WP:CORP. Delete unless relevant sources can be added. Walton monarchist89 15:50, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
• The company's website is located at: http://www.jimdunlop.com/.

• Weak Delete Keep, but valid sources are required. A look on the company's website (such as here) mention products being used by famous bands (as well as pictures of bands throughout the website), however I am not sure if that counts as a valid source. --RazorICE ^T/_C @ 05:40, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
