[edit] Coyle's Country Store

Coyle's Country Store (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Relatively small chain of stores in southern Ontario. Originally prodded as a nn company that does not meet WP:CORP. It is claimed in the article, without proper verification or reliable sources that a past proprietor of the store invented instant coffee. This runs contrary to the verifiable attributions of the invention to others. Absent the instant coffee claim, there is nothing encyclopedic about this company. (See also the AfD discussion on A.J. Coyle‎, the purported "true" inventor.) Agent 86 01:38, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment: Related AfD discussion on A.J. Coyle is here. Notability does appear to be absence unless a source corroborates the store's claim about the history of instant coffee–unless the bogus claim itself had such notoriety to be notable, which is conceivable, but is not the case here.

  • Delete fails WP:CORP, verging on nonsense. SkierRMH,07:15, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete absent verification of instant coffee claim, they are NN. No reason to beleive they will in the foreseeable future otherwise categorized. TonyTheTiger 19:52, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: If this article is up for deletion, then wouldn't all the articles that are just as...boring...need to be deleted, as well? For example: Benton, Missouri, Broadview Heights, Ohio, etc.
