Pointing out

I know it's not exactly in the rules, but common sense, to me, is that if a company would have at some point a significant share of a major country's non-niche market, they are notable. Re: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tee-Comm Electronics. 60% of Canada and 20% of US in satellite television seems like it would fit. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:33, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

Piotrus I just look at the sources. I saw that this point is what shifted your thinking. I suppose I'm a little more sceptical - especially of anything that Cunard posts since I've seen how he blatently removes anything that suggests that what he is quoting comes from a company-connected source. I, unfortunately, was not able to track down the original article posted by Cunard but a couple of questions such as: Who is supposed to have provided those figures? Where they self-published? Also in 1994, satellite TV (DBS) was in its infancy as most US/Canada TV was cable and not satellite. In 1994, Tee-Comm had a total of 32,000 subscribers but I can't find any source to support those numbers.[edit: clarify - "those numbers" refer to the claim of 60% of Canada and 20% of US in satellite television] HighKing⁺⁺ 11:41, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

Those are all good points, but TBH there are so many crappier company stub pages to fry, I figure we can let that one be. Those sources look not half bad, even trough we could nitcpick them further (plus, likely to no avail, given the mostly keep votes). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:39, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
