Non-notable company (despite its age), no context, not linked, no cat, not referenced, no sources. Ligulem 10:19, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- And no keep too. Delete in its current form unless sources are provided. Kavadi carrier 10:30, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- It's going to be hard finding online sources, if anyone feels like expanding this. I can't even find an official website for the company. Kavadi carrier 10:33, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- REALLY? www.victorinsulators.com was that hard to find??? Unfocused 14:28, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Neither searching for "Victor Insulator" [1] nor "Victor Insulator Company" [2] get you that website within the first two pages of results. Kavadi carrier 15:09, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- keep. Company is a pioneer in their field, and has been in business continuously for over 100 years. Unfocused 14:28, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I didn't know that age alone qualifies as being encyclopaedic. However, your are welcome to add something interesting to that boring article. It's rather like a directory entry. --Ligulem 13:20, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Added reference stating it is the oldest insulator manufacturer in North America, which should qualify it notability-wise. Edison 03:46, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per Edison's addition. Thanks for the amusement, Unfocused. --Oakshade 05:35, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
