Article is a thinly-veiled advertisement for the company and its founder, Ad van Wijk, who presumably controls Wikipedia:Single-purpose accounts Special:Contributions/CC_MeK and Special:Contributions/MegaMad. It could potentially be speedily deleted under CSD G11. -- DanielPenfield (talk) 17:33, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

  • Keep. OK, the advertisement here isn't even thinly veiled, it's pretty blatant. However, it can be rewritten and the subject is plenty notable-- see, for instance, [http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/energy/windpower/3309280/Econcern---a-big-player-in-renewable-energy.html this article in the Telegraph], [http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/industry_sectors/natural_resources/article5327468.ece this slightly] more than passing mention in the Times, and [http://www.tijd.be/nieuws/ondernemingen_energie/Econcern_plant_windmolenpark_in_Zeebrugge.8119093-432.art this brief mention] of a significant project in De Tijd. I don't think we can or should delete this, though I agree that the spam here is thick enough to feed a family. Drmies (talk) 22:36, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

*Delete In sufficient notability. Keep Telegraph story is substantial. ChildofMidnight (talk) 01:03, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
