[edit] Nucleics

Advertising - doesn't meet WP:CORP

  • Delete as per my nom. Dlyons493 Talk 01:18, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

I had a look at the WP:CORP guidelines and it says that it is not against it if a company holds more than a 20% share of its market. Nucleics falls into this category.

    • Comment I'll be happy to be proved wrong on this and will withdraw nom on foot of verification of above. Dlyons493 Talk 12:58, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

  • I wanted to vote Keep. However, I cannot find many third party sources to verify their importance as per WP:CORP. The only one that I could find was on the University of Technology, Sydney website see [1]. No reports could be found in the Australian media for example If it could be proved that they had at least a 20% market share, I would vote Keep but I am abstaining for now.

  • Delete, their primary activity is offering a DNA sequencing facility - I would guess that most universities in Australia have an equivalent facility.--nixie 02:26, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep Ill Dilettante 05:49, 7 November 2005 (UTC) The 20% figure is difficult to prove for private companies like Nucleics working in niche areas. Nucleics primary activity is not offering a DNA sequencing service, but software and reagents for improving DNA sequencing (as per the article). Nucleics has also been listed in Science as a supplier of DNA sequencing software Advances In : Genomics – Fresh Steps in Sequencing.
