[edit] NuComm International
This article has been around for almost a year, and has been subject to regular tides of promotional edits and negative criticism, but in all this time I've yet to see a single reliable source added to supplement the sole link to the company's website. It's pretty much just been a battleground for current employees vs. disgruntled ex-employees.
At this point it's borderline speedy-able as an unsourced blatant advert, as there's nothing here that I wouldn't expect to find on a fluffy "about us" page on the company's own website. However, I'm listing it for a full AfD since it's been around for so long and to allow for the possibility that good RSs can be found and the article cleaned up. --AbsolutDan (talk) 02:07, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

- Keep - I've cleaned up the article and provided references to my redone History section. Acid0057 05:28, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Acid0057: Thank you for your hard work. However, are there other sources that might better meet WP:RS standards? Of the 4 links currently present, 1 is the company's own website, 2 are to the company's press releases, and the last is a brief description (self-description, most likely) on a job site, which any company posting job listings can have... --AbsolutDan (talk) 05:50, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- Comment AbsolutDan: I'm trying but with a Newer company like this it is hard to find resources other than the companies own postings. The press releases are compiled from an indepentant resource. Doesn't that count? Acid0057 20:42, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Ok I've added more independant news stories on NuComm. Is this better? Acid0057 21:54, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Looks better - can't vouch for the reliability of the new sources, but consider my opinion to be Neutral now. --AbsolutDan (talk) 01:23, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

- Keep for now to see if Acid0057 can come up with more sources. Realkyhick 06:58, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Thanks for the support. Acid0057 20:43, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- Keep - I worked with Acid0057 to improve this article. With more sources and less resemblance to the company's site, the article is showing potential. Idjit 22:12, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
