The result was delete. Article remains significantly undersourced by WP:V/WP:RS despite efforts by AfD participants to find sources. Pigman☿ 16:54, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Asian Tiger Capital Partners[edit]

The article itself has improved substantially over the previously deleted version, but it still fails WP:NOTE. Their are two web references given about the company, [1] and [2]. Both sound like press releases to me, but IMHO fail to estabilsh noteability. The remaining links in the article are about the economic growth of Bangladesh, written by the managing director of the company, but not about the company.

Delete improved or not this is still basically an advertisement. Jasynnash2 (talk) 14:51, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete G11? Juliancolton ^Tropical ^Cyclone 14:58, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
not a G11 speedy, provides information, not entirely advertising. But t he actual question is whether the $100-$200 million is significant enough in Bangladesh. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DGG (talk • contribs) 15:41, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Advert for non-notable company.Yobmod (talk) 15:45, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I came to this thinking about closing the AfD. The consensus seems to be delete, but I am unhappy about that. Surely something that has such a big financial impact on a poor country has to be notable. Are there really no sources? --Bduke (talk) 11:09, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. But this is really not a huge amount of money. There are no cites to say this will have a big impact. It is only the company claiming this. does the money even exist?Yobmod (talk) 09:57, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I tried, but couldn't find any non-press release or independent news about them. sorry Bduke, maybe create article once they get more coverage.--Finalnight (talk) 05:05, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - soures are a bit weak, but this has no indications of being a hoax, and as such seems to point toward a notable company. The Daily Star article looks legit, given the loacation of this company, I think we are expecting a little too much in terms of english language web resouces --T-rex 16:16, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- "Asian Tiger to raise $100-200m for Bangladesh fund" looks like a press release to me, and is IMHO far from significant coverage.
  And I did tell the author that he can provide references in Bangla if he wants. --Amalthea (talk) 16:27, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  - I was actually refering to this article at the same website --T-rex 16:36, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - not a hoax, mentioned in a reliable source, but lacks significant coverage. PhilKnight (talk) 21:50, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Although most of the references are not independent sources, this one seems to be: http://www.thedailystar.net/story.php?nid=32625. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:39, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
