NN company who's article doesn't provide sources. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 04:58, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Speedy Delete I'm not hungry for spam tonight. Very promotional in tone, and the only sources are their corporate website and a link to shareholder information. Needs to go Rackabello 07:11, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment: Removed the speedy tag as I got a hit on Google News within the past month. There's also an external link to a third-party news site (which is broken), which at least asserts some notabiltiy. --Sigma 7 09:51, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Chain with over 500 shops seems likely to be notable to me, and a web search shows no shortage of hits. Described as "the largest tuxedo rental and sales retailer in the U.S." here. JulesH 07:13, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep This is a large chain of clothiers in its own right. I'm the original creator of this article, and it appears a subsequent editor turned this into an ad. (The last time I messed with it was before it was bought by Men's Warehouse.) --Kitch (Talk : Contrib) 10:56, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
    • Further comment I have excised the sections that made it look like an advertisement. --Kitch (Talk : Contrib) 11:02, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - store exists in most malls that I have been to. Phil Sandifer 12:43, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notable franchise with over 500 stores to speak of. Burntsauce 17:11, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong keep per Burntsauce, Kitch, JulesH, et al. Notable retailer, has plenty of locations nationwide. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 19:13, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Absolutely notable company. Article should be sourced and copy edited to eliminate any promotional slant. LACameraman 23:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
