[edit] VerdaTech Energy Management & Consulting
The article is about a company that is at most borderline in notability. The article itself has little more content than listing the companies awards, which themselves are non-notable. Please comment here. User A1 11:48, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Keep It's one of the largest energy consulting companies in western Canada, I would say that is reasonably notable. Maxeboy 06:46, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- I think that distinction is not very important, as it is too specific (To clarify what am saying, the word blue in "blue bee" is the largest word in quotation marks in this sentence) -- the field is small, being large in this field does not make one notable. According to their website they have four staff members. User A1 08:54, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Furthermore, according to their whois information, the general manager, Mr Farrel is also the registrar of the website, something that is very atypical of large organisations User A1 08:58, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete -- big or little, eastern or western Canada, VerdaTech still has to meet the specific requirements of our Notability Guideline. I found just 81 unique Google hits, nothing in Google News, and 3 items in Google's News Archive. I think the CTV story from the archive (and also cited in our article) is good but not quite good enough since it's more about energy efficiency than about the company; I think others looking at this AfD should just see the story and decide for themselves. The same is true of the long Calgary Herald article -- it's more about energy efficiency than Verdatech but others may want to see for themselves. I don't think the Calgary Small Business Week award finalist story cited in the article is sufficient, either. --A. B. (talk) 17:21, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Delete (unless notability is properly sourced, which seems unlikely). Per their website it's only got several employees doing energy inspections. If we covered every company of that size with nothing more to their credit we probably would overload the servers. For what it's worth there is a source here.[1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikidemo (talk • contribs) 10:06, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
