[edit] Cargoitalia

Article about a corporation that shows no evidence of satisfying WP:CORP. Appears to be company doing self-promotion (WP:SPAM). Twice deleted for expired WP:PROD, once deleted for copyright violation, I'd suggest that if the result of this discussion is a Delete, that this article be Protected from recreation.

• Keep. Airlines are generally notable. I looked for newspaper articles about the company, and added two under "References" in this article, which means that it now unambiguously satisfies WP:CORP. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 21:43, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
  • The first of these 'articles' falls into the category of merely trivial coverage as defined by WP:CORP : "... articles that simply report extended shopping hours or the publications of telephone numbers and addresses in business directories". The second is inaccessible to me. Valrith 22:06, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
    • No, the first article is about 200 words long and is non-trivial. [This] would be a trivial article. The second article is a bit longer, and is also therefore non-trivial. Newspaper or magazine articles which are not available online (or for which free registration is required) are just as valid as those that are available online free of charge. I wish someone had looked up these newspaper stories and added them to the article before the article was prodded. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 22:23, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
    • As well, please note that both newspaper stories are bylined (that is, they indicate the name of the journalist who wrote the story), which generally indicates that the newspaper story is non-trivial. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 22:26, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

• Keep
  • • i agree. i have no idea why you are indicating any of your reasons for deletion.

• Delete I believe the articles amount to trivial coverage as defined at WP:CORP. They are not truly about the airline, they are about schedule expansions of adding particular flights. What we need to have a solid article is independent coverage about the airline, not about a particular flight. I suspect this may be an article that needs to be created on the Italian wikipedia and then translated here. GRBerry 03:55, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per TT. --badlydrawnjeff talk 11:03, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
