Kuoni Travel

[edit]

Reads far too much like an advertisement for my liking, but i'd nominated for AfD instead of PROD to see other opinions on the matter. Regards, CycloneNimrod^Talk? 16:06, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. A few brief mentions in news sources, but most of those appear to be press releases, advertising/publicity, or just not enough significant discussion of the subject to warrant notability. Cirt (talk) 17:52, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Come on guys, this is a hundred-year-old company which is a household name in the UK. How are these 775 Google News hits "a few brief mentions in news sources"? And what about these 225 books (which take the reliable source count to a nice round 1000) including this one which says, "the market leader for long-haul packages is Swiss-owned Kuoni Travel, with about a fifth of the market in the UK"? If you think some of these references should be in the article then please feel free to add them - there's a tab called "edit this page" that lets you do this.

Keep but.... stubbify or otherwise get rid of most of the article, which is unencyclopedic advertising-like material. It does seem to be easily notable given all of the coverage and size/age of the company. I took a stab at fixing the article[1] but self-reverted to allow people to weigh in on this discussion first.
