Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dover Corporation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dover Corporation was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was DELETE

Nonsense. Duplicate of The Dover Company. (Alas, duplication doesn't make it a CSD.) See also Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/The Schluedenkopf Family. Dbenbenn 19:03, 24 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Update: Dover Corporation is a real Fortune 500 company, see [1]. But the content of the article is nonsense.

  • The Dover Company is a cut and paste move of Dover Corporation. Can this subject be verified or is it misinformation vandalism? Dunc| 19:25, 24 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Valid subject, but no useful content or history. If someone likes to make this into a good stub or better, I'll change my vote. Andrewa 20:22, 24 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete, a patent hoax is vandalism. Wyss 00:14, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete: Let a new article be planted, without this hoax in the edit history. We don't want well meaning folks to revert accidentally to this if the vandal returns. Geogre 04:30, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • I accidentally deleted this when I deleted The Dover Company - I thought they were one and the same as one redirected to the other. As the votes are pretty unanimous I'll leave it as it is, unless anyone objects greatly. -- Graham ☺ | Talk 23:40, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)
