[edit] Richer Sounds

Richer Sounds (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Based on tone and history, appears to have been created as advertising. Notability suspect. Delete. --Nlu (talk) 11:52, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Cleanup / Keep. It's a very prominent high street store in the UK. Many branches. The article does read like an advert though Amists talk • contribs 12:00, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - no problem with notability; could do with a cleanup, though. BTLizard 12:27, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep obviously. Needs cleanup, but the notability and verifiability of Richer Sounds is not in doubt; not only are they a major high street brand, they are also responsible (at least as far as I can tell) for a substantial shift in the entire hi-fi market in the UK. One might fairly characterise them the Virgin of sound equipment. Oh, plus Julian Richer is a top man :-) Guy (Help!) 12:38, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Cleanup & Keep very notable high street shop in UK. --SandyDancer 12:38, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep and cleanup. Notability and sources is not a porlbem here. Just need to cleanup the article's tone. --Terence Ong (C | R) 12:55, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • C;eanup & Keep - too much like an advert but notable. Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 13:24, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Article needs radical tidy. Its a well know shop chain in Scotland. scope_creep 16:35, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Cleanup and Keep - Notable and well known high street home cinema and hi-fi stores. Although I do agree that the article needs cleaning up badly. --tgheretford (talk) 19:50, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per User:JzG. It is indeed well known. Wouldn't necessarily go so far to say that Julian Richer is a top man, though. Ohconfucius 01:58, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per JzG and send in the WikiMaids for a routine clean up. RFerreira 06:22, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep: Incredibly strong in influencing how we listen to music at home in the UK. A large company with a huge impact. Ben W Bell talk 08:28, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
  • It pains me to say it, but Keep. Whilst I feel that Wikipedia shouldn't be a directory of businesses, this one probably counts as a notable one. WMMartin 18:47, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
  • keep please this looks notable to me too Yuckfoo 02:34, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
