[edit] Symitar

Symitar (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notable. An orphaned article who's parent company doesn't have an article of their own. -- Latin American X-Change 03:26, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

• Keep: Google news search brings back a number of relevant results, from reliable sources. Some of the results' headlines imply that the articles are specifically about the company, thus, appearing to meet notability requirements. - Rjd0060 (talk) 04:32, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
• Merge under Jack Henry Is the idea of wikipedia to be a buyer's guide of all companies, divisions of companies, and their products? This is a division of Jack Henry. This article looks like an ad for the company's products to me. Today, even one-person companies can generate multiple hits on google by issuing press releases and doing basic advertising. No company would care to be considered non-notable. Search for cutek, a tiny consulting firm about 3 years old. Any company that employs people and generates a profit is notable to someone... but I wonder where the line gets drawn. If I add a division of another company, or even another division of Jack Henry, written in the same fashion, I wager it will be tagged for rapid deletion right away as simply an ad. That's what I see here, too. The company USED to be independent. But now I don't see a reason to list them separately from Jack Henry. Symitar is not listed in the Software 500. Jack Henry is #78. I think this one goes away and we add one for Jack Henry, similar to the articles for Fiserv and Metavante in the same industry... listing Symitar as one of their divisions. Isn't this the proper approach so we don't have 100+ little Fiserv division ads in the mix?--Pearrari (talk) 15:20, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

If there is no further opinion, I'm willing to make an effort at building a Jack Henry page and loading Symitar (and other division info) into it. Is that a constructive next step? --Pearrari 04:03, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
