Kitco Metals Inc

edit

I wanted to write an article about the Kitco company. My primary interest is investment research. I want to know as much as is publically available about the company's assets and history. Here is what I have: For its definition, I use their about us page-- it is a precious metals bullion and mill products retailer. I then describe the website (forum/online store/commentary). For notability, I reference the fact that its website has received an informational award from Forbes magazine (best of the web) and that the website is the most trafficked precious metals site and the 12th most trafficked site in the U.S. Business:Investing category on Alexa. For General information I went to the better business bureau website and their review report which gives the date of creation, owner, and business review ranking (A). If all this is footnoted, is this a sufficient start to avoid a speedy deletion? Mrdthree (talk) 22:51, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If the company is notable and the notability is asserted with reliable sources, then there should be no problem. Of course you need to avoid making it look or sound like advertising or SPAM. -- Alexf(talk) 14:48, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
