Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Davis & Shirtliff
This AfD request is not  just  about  promotional tone, it  is also  about  notability  and sourcing - two  major criteria for inclusion. Lines 127, 172, 278, 284, 296 298, 482, 585, of the vast 78 page  Loughboro  Uni  research  report briefly  mention Davis & Shirtliff, but  the report  is not  ''about''  the company  of D&L, and they  are only  mentioned in  comparisons with  other suppliers of pumps in  the market,  the prices and stocks of pumps, the local  areas they  serve,  and servicing  facilities.  The research  report  does not contribute to  'significant  coverage' of the Wikipedia article subject, even broadly  construed as a  and , and the mentions do  not  add to  the notability  of the Wikipedia article
