[edit] Blackwood & Morton Kilmarnock
AfDs for this article:
Notability tagged since April...appears to try to claim notability from the carpets on the Titanic...however it wasn't this branch of the company that created those as stated in the article. They aren't notable because another division did something notable. Fails WP:N and WP:RS LegoTech·(t)·(c) 15:48, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. The company that carpeted Titanic might be notable, but not this one. Clarityfiend (talk) 18:47, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy delete This article is doesn't really establish WP:ORG. Worse still, its creator is a banned sockpuppet: [1] Artene50 (talk) 05:27, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

- Keep if we can try and get some better info. Okay, here's the deal, I live in the same area as Kilmarnock and have quite a few books on the subject, I can try and put up some info on BMK if you like, if you like I can put some of the info from here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Kilmarnock#BMK into the BMK entry and remove some of the messier formatting. After all, we really don't need to know 3 or 4 times over that the BMK office site was the site of a Safeways. If I do some tidy up and try to work some references in from published materials, actual books I possess would you be okay at least at me trying it? Douglasnicol (talk) 21:12, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
- In addition, I'm removing non-relevant content first. The fact that a Safeways closed has absolutely nothing to do with BMK as at this time Safeways shop closure was to do with the Morrisons buyout, therefore not relevant, the AMH warehouse closure was due to flooding. If you give me time I can try and get a tidier and far more relevant article up. I might need some help in putting in the references, but that's not the material, its the technical side in how to cite them. Douglasnicol (talk) 14:15, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
