[edit] International Car and Motors

Another prod removed by Kappa, so bringing it over to AfD for discussion. The article is largely incoherent, but appears to be some kind of promotional effort of a nn concern. Eusebeus 11:37, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

• Hold This appears to be an Indian venture of some kind, that most wikipedians are likely to know very little about (see systematic bias). English-language google is likely to be of limited use as well. What I would really like is to be able to tag some problematic articles like this to allow a hold or timeout for a few days, in this case to try and recruit a couple of Indian editors to tell us whether this is a notable venture, and if so, to clean up the article. I have noticed that AfDs for some things get cross-posted to get more attention (webcomics and Australian issues being two areas that come to mind). Is there a similar forum for India-related articles? I guess I have no problem with deletion in its current form but I would prefer someone with more local knowledge to weigh in.

• Weak Keep. This company is part of the Mittal Group, which is one of the two or three largest industrial empires in India. The article decidedly needs cleanup, but it certainly meets WP:CORP on the face of it. RGTraynor 16:17, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Maybe a merge to Mittal then so it can get the attention it needs? Eusebeus 16:22, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

• Kepp notable companies, don't merge. --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEMES?) 22:08, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
• There is a Wikipedia:WikiProject_Deletion_sorting/India which doesn't receive as much attention as the Australian or webcomic versions. Other nations such as the UK and Canadians post it to the national page. It takes some work to keep them up to date but in my view it is worth it. I look after Australia, New Zealand and Oceania and other editors look at the Australian articles as well. If Indian editors kept an eye on articles relevant to India, that would be good. I will add this to the Indian list. Capitalistroadster 01:30, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of India-related deletions. -- Capitalistroadster 01:30, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Keep, bad faith nomination. Eusebeus is systematically bringing disputed prods to AfD without regard to merits of dispute. Monicasdude 14:01, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
