Delete. This is an old company, which argues in its favor, but the article does not assert notability aside from its existence.--JohnnyB256 (talk) 18:54, 26 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Long established national company, The basic facts are verified by the its own web page, and with a search, under the proper heading ,"Wasserstrom Company", Google News Archive gives a good number of sources [1], including the Washington Post, and an award. (Note however the GNews now includes Display advertisements in its coverage, so the actual hits must be looked at every one of them, not merely counted). Even were the good GNews sources not there, a search for RS in print sources is needed before concluding it is unsourceable. I remind people about WP:BEFORE, which ought to be required. I changed the article title to the actual name. DGG ( talk ) 23:40, 27 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep - Typically we don't use the subject's own webpage to verify and, in this case, ratify its notability. That aside, this appears to be a notable company, and I see very little to suggest that this article is a veiled attempt at promotion. More important, there are reliable sources, albeit spread out, that reference the company in a notable way. No prejudice to the nom at the time of nomination, but I think it's notable.

no offense taken I never mind if something I nominated stays because someone found something I did not... RP459 (talk) 17:49, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
