from VfD:

Spam, no useful content. I almost speedy deleted it -- Chuq 07:52, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Comment: Chuq, you did tag it for speedy.  :-) Since you decided to list it here instead, I changed the speedy tag to a Vfd tag. SWAdair | Talk 08:00, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
I realised that and came back later, I think I got to it 20 seconds after you changed it :) Chuq 22:33, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Google gives 10,700 hits in English, 78,100 in all languages. With that many people talking about it, it looks notable enough to me. SWAdair | Talk 08:14, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep but improve the article. It should be listed in cleanup/stubs needing attention pages, not here. Multinational enterprise with revenue around 1.3B USD and nearly 18000 employees in four continents is certainly a valid topic. jni 08:20, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete if it stays a substub by the end of voting. Look, the topic might be worthwhile, but we do ourselves a vast disservice, and our readers an insult, by carrying placeholders like this. We lose users every time we yield something like this to a search. Wikipedia isn't just about retaining contributors: we are supposed to be making a reference work. Geogre 00:51, 9 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Please add the acquisition of Aricent

P.S. I talked to User:AntiCompositeNumber on IRC about this change. User:AntiCompositeNumber seems to approve of the change.

Please add the following right after 'Dominique Cerutti' in the introduction.

On November 30, 2017, Altran signed an agreement to acquire the global design and engineering services firm Aricent. The deal is expected to close in the first quarter of 2018. The combined entity will have 44,000 employees operating across 30 countries and have close to €3 billion ($3.56 billion) in revenues.[1]

  Declined The requested claim statements represent forward-thinking hypotheses regarding future expectations and do not represent matters for an encylopedia, per: WP:FUTURE. If AntiCompositeNumber is willing to make this change to an article which is — by all appearances — already bloated, they are welcome to it.

I believe the wording I used was that the request didn’t obviously violate any policies or guidelines when they asked in WP:IRCHELP. I won’t be adding the sentence nor doing the complete rewrite this article probably needs (WP:OTHERPARENT anyone?), so this article will probably stay as it is. --AntiCompositeNumber (Ring me) 16:31, 18 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
Amazingly, I wasn't notified about this through email! Anyhow, thanks @AntiCompositeNumber: and @Spintendo: for looking into this proposed addition. I had a look at WP:FUTURE. The agreement was signed, no crystal balls are needed. The acquisition does not announce a product not is it a rumor. Anything I could do to enhance the text?
