Fails WP:COMPANY. While it clearly exists and is apparently a successful family operation, this advertorial-style article cannot be supported by significant coverage in reliable sources, per my WP:BEFORE search of Gnews. Passing mentions only in Gbooks. Am I missing any WP:RS? Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:47, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Very short of time onwiki, so here's a quick dump of some possible sources:

  • Again, I see only passing mentions. Perhaps these links point to the original location in Whitechapel having had some cultural notability -- but the article as currently composed is an advert that requires much more than these name drops here and there.

  • Keep Notable fixture of London's Jewish life for 150 years. Detailed, in-depth coverage in reliable sources, including those covering it from the angles of London, Jewish and industry. (There is also plenty of local media coverage in London and Toronto, but as I've mentioned, I'm short of time):
[6] London Remembers (site marked by a London Remembers heritage plaque)
[7] British Baker
[8] Hackney Museum
[9] The Jewish Chronicle

  • Keep I just sourced it to the first 5 hits that came up on a news archive search. There were more in that search. None of the hits I found replicate the ones given above by User:Dweller. AfD probably stems from the lamentable fact that Nom lives in Montreal, known to be a bit snobbish about their bakeries, chaps in Montreal are.E.M.Gregory (talk) 09:42, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • As User:Shawn in Montreal says, the article has a PROMO tone and was largely unsourced when nominated. It needs to have the hot air out, although it is permissible to have some small bit of the history of the bakery sourced to a primary source like the baker's own website or a published family reminiscence.
