[edit] Matthew Algie

This article is about a coffee and tea manufacturer. However, it is not mere advertising, remains neutral, and seems to have been mentioned in several reliable sources. I'm not completely sure that it establishes the company's notability, though, although I think it should as its products are prominent in several notable businesses and has fair trade/charity links. I wouldn't particularly like this article to be deleted but I have put it here so concensus can be reached. I have added seven different references to the article.-h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 14:22, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment the key reference is the Scottish Herald one... which doesn't fulfil the need for multiple non trivial sources. Personally, I'm not content that the Oxfam source cuts the mustard and the other refs are self-published. Holding fire with my opinion for now though. --Dweller 14:39, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
    • I've added more references and expanded the article slightly.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 15:26, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong keep this is a relatively major regional company. Just because it doesn't exist in the US, doesn't mean it's somehow unworthy of a Wikipedia article — iridescenti (talk to me!) 17:48, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Clearly notable, per additional citations. --Dweller 18:27, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep as the subject is clearly notable. If I am reading this correctly, the nominator agrees and this should be withdrawn. RFerreira 06:51, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
