Indosat

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I am a volunteer on WP:OTRS. Occasionally we get requests from company representatives to delete an article about their own company from Wikipedia. Our standard response is to offer three choices: (1) Nominate the article for deletion yourself, (2) ask us to do so in your behalf, or (3) specify corrections you wish to be made. The standard response also makes it clear that there is no guarantee that options 1 or 2 will result in deletion.

In this case, a public relations representative of Indosat wrote to OTRS to complain about errors and request deletion, in OTRS ticket #2014040610001427. In answer to the standard response, the representative chose options 2 and 3. Per option 3, the requested corrections to the article have been made. Per option 2, I am proposing this article for deletion in their behalf, as requested to satisfy the issues raised in the OTRS ticket, knowing that this company likely meets WP:CORP criteria for inclusion. ~Amatulić (talk) 21:54, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. This is an important company. I see no problems with the article, but if there are, they can be fixed by editing. I support permanent semi-protection, which could be applied by the closing admin. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:46, 14 April 2014 (UTC).[reply]
Keep - Absolutely massive company, one of the largest telecommunications companies in one of the largest cell phone markets on Earth. Hundreds of possible sources, both in Indonesian and in English. That this article appears to have been the target of concerted efforts to paint them as part of MNC Media Group (see the page history), and that the company can't edit the page to its liking because they don't know how to reference (we've had the same issues with the Indonesian version of the article) doesn't mean they can just say "Fine, we're taking our toys away". The article may need permanent semi-protection, but it is quite valid. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:12, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It's major company with a significant market share in mobile telephony and internet services, as well as substantial assets. Davidelit (Talk) 03:47, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep The subject meets almost every criteria for WP:CORP. The only problem with the article is that quite a few of the cited sources are primary. I have added the appropriate tag. Suggest speedy close per WP:SNOW. -Ad Orientem (talk) 20:58, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
