- Keep About 100 years old, publicly traded, over 25,000 employees and sales exceeding $8.5 billion US per year[1]. However, I think some of the material in the article itself may be inaccurate --Wafulz 01:51, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
- Weak Keep It needs citation, but since it is notable, we should probably keep it. Hello32020 02:01, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per above, if it can be cleaned-up and expanded a bit.--KojiDude (Contributions) 02:42, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

- Keep per above, if claims are true. --- RockMFR 03:51, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. I think I have fixed the factual errors, which seem to relate to information on a printing company with a similar name. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 04:29, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

- Speedy Keep as bad faith nom by possible single purpose account. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 18:58, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
- Please assume good faith. Legitimate contributors often choose not to have accounts. However, to complete an AFD nomination page an account is required. So someone may create an account, use it to do a nomination, and then never login again until they want to create another page. GRBerry 18:12, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- However, the odds of someone who has never done any editing under an account also knowing how to do the whole AfD process correctly is pretty low. Also note that I indicated it was a possible SPA, not a given. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 19:05, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- I wouldn't say it's a SPA. Possibly just a new user without much experience. He does bring up a good point, though. This article needs alot of clean-up, and some references to prove it's notability.--KojiDude (Contributions) 21:29, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

- Comment Unclear to me if the company meets the WP:CORP standards. Evidence is not in the stub. I suspect the multiple press coverage standard is met, but we don't have evidence here yet. It may also meet the stock market index test, but again there is no evidence. GRBerry 18:12, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- WP:CORP links:
- Sun Chemical puts STC on 'History' map (Dainippon owns Sun Chemical, and is mentioned in the article)
- Research Frontiers Update on SmartGlass Operations
- IAL issues new directories of PU systems houses for Asia-Pacific... (requires a subscription to access archive)
- That was just a quickie 5-minute search. I'm sure others are out there. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 19:16, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
