[edit] Wendy's of Michigan
AfDs for this article:
Article does not establish why Wendy's of Michigan is significantly more notable than any other fast food franchisee. Mr.Z-man 16:31, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Nothing notable about this regional franchisee. Realkyhick 16:52, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
- Weak Keep I'd say that being the only Publicly traded Wendy's franchisee has some notability. — Timotab Timothy (not Tim dagnabbit!) 17:20, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
- That's enough of an assertion of notability to pass WP:CSD#A7, but is there anything to make it pass the main notability guideline and/or the one for companies? Mr.Z-man 19:17, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. They are formerly traded, and are on the pink sheets - but the pink sheets don't even imply notability. It's just another franchisee. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 20:01, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
- Weak keep, seems like they could pass WP:CORP, but move to Meritage Hospitality Group, which is the parent company and the entity that is publicly traded as MHGU. Googlers take notice. --Dhartung | Talk 04:33, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep and Move to parent company, Meritage Hospitality Group. Nenyedi • (Deeds•Talk) 20:37, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
- Even though they're a publicly traded Wendy's franchisee, they're listed on the Pink Sheets. They got delisted from another exchange (the American Stock Exchange?) because they didn't meet minimum reporting requirements. Also, according to this press release, the company is "exploring strategic options", which can be translated as, "We're circling the drain." I can't find any other real sources of news on this company other than press releases, and being listed on the Pink Sheets doesn't really amount to notability, so delete this article. --Elkman (Elkspeak) 01:23, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete local branches of anything are rarely notable--this is certainly no exception, based on the information available. DGG (talk) 06:32, 6 September 2007 (UTC).
- Delete per DGG. Dean Wormer 04:11, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
