The result was delete and redirect to Chow Tai Fook. A reasonable argument could be made for closing this as NC, but the assertion of copyright issues makes me take the more conservative path of deleting and redirecting. Had there been no question about the copyright, this probably would have been kept. There is no consensus on notability of this, per-se, so there's nothing preventing somebody from writing a new article, as long as it's appropriately sourced, in-depth, and free of WP:CV. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:24, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Subject fails WP:NCORP and WP:GNG. WP:ORGCRIT specifically talks about the routine and dependent coverage from outlets like Bloomberg. The Hong Kong and Nikkei listing is ROUTINE,as is DeBeers. Chris Troutman (talk) 19:21, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak Keep per WP:LISTED though sources are appalling at present. Theroadislong (talk) 19:49, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Keep this is a WP:LISTED company on the Hong Kong Exchange as clearly shown on the page - the burden is on the nominator to show that sources don't exist for a multinational with a 90 year history that is a big part of a notable conglomerate Chow Tai Fook. There is a public good in providing coverage for large public companies that employ thousands, have numerous investors, and who your pension fund might be invested in. They are a lot more important and notable than some East German handball player that made it to the Olympics 50 years ago and was never heard from again but is treated as autonotable because sources must exist! WP:LISTED makes the case that almost always do sources exist to ensure notability because the filing requirements, financial press coverage of listed companies, and ongoing reporting requirements for listed companies generate significant coverage.

- Comment...could be merged with Chow Tai Fook whose main content is about the jewellery group. Theroadislong (talk) 20:09, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- As a note, the article was moved out from draftspace at lease twice and move back to draft namespace at least once, it was also nominated for G11 already and contested. Content by Yulokyuan (talk · contribs) and Kittychan1132 (talk · contribs) were hidden due to copyvio (and it looks likes a paid editor). The current state of the article certainly worth to merge.

- Second note. As Chow Tai Fook (the conglomerate that start as jewellery retailer) and Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group (the forked out listed company) are closely related, it is not wise to use hatnote for direct people to which articles they want. Also the old content of Chow Tai Fook was entirely contain the history of the conglomerate as jewellery retailer only, and missing those content as investment holding company. Creating a parallel article Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group and then deleting jewellery content from Chow Tai Fook seems bad. Matthew hk (talk) 17:57, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Remember that we need to vote on the notability of a very old very large public company not on the current state of the article. G11 applies to truly promotional pages, not every page that deals with a business, as some editors seem to think. Legacypac (talk) 18:53, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- @Legacypac: Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group is new, 2011 established listed company. The very old origins and the jewellery store was covered in article title Chow Tai Fook until COI/paid draft of Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group was publish to article namespace. There is not much reason to fork out content. Swire article actually housed the parent, privately owned Swire and Sons, and the listed Swire Pacific
and Swire Properties. Hong Kong conglomerate was like Matryoshka. It just a complete mess to fork out the content if the companies had almost exact name and area of business.
- In fact, the redirect Chow Tai Fook Jewellery, Chow Tai Fook Jewellry Company and Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Company (all targeted to Chow Tai Fook in the past) were created back to 2008 to 2017 and not properly re-targeted to the new draft-to-article Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group until recently.
