Notability

[edit]

As I don't read Japanese, I haven't been able to establish Kagome's notability in the normal way, with extensive coverage in reliable sources. A mention in QSR magazine is not enough. However, I think that

  1. a listing on the main market of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, and
  2. the first ever tomato grower in Japan

both point to notability. I would like help to firmly establish notability, in case I need to defend it from deletionists; so could readers of Japanese please identify sources, such as major newspaper articles? Translations of short extracts would also be helpful. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 13:45, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Have you checked financial sites in English, for example Google Finance? --Sushiya (talk) 14:07, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Good question. I included the most notable English language material from Google into the article. There was little significant coverage, only press releases, and brief mentions in the financial press. I will cite this very short article in Forbes: http://www.forbes.com/markets/feeds/afx/2007/05/17/afx3734200.html --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 15:08, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Does this 1991 article from the Modesto Bee help establish notability? [1] I didn't add it to the Wikipedia article.
I think the English Jiji Press article [2] helps too, but it is very much a summarized press release. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 15:25, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Japan Weekly Monitor (English) [3]. Is that worth adding to the article? I think the article would really benefit from some major Japanese-language sources. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 15:52, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Kagome-Juice Availability

[edit]

I used to buy Kagome juices when I lived in the US, but it appears as though they haven't been available for a while now. Does anyone know anything about what happened to the company's juices? --VetLH (talk) 20:17, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
