Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was keep.


This is a very incomplete list of coffee distributors and roasters. See this [list ] for comparison. Most coffee companies will never have a wikipedia article so making a list of them doesn't make much sense. Zenyu

  • Keep: I agree that big piles of redlinks are bad practice. In fact, I think list makers ought to at least be nice enough to not wikilink everything. It would help cut down on VfD load. This list at least isn't a bunch of trivia like List of dogs in novels or some other nonsense. Geogre 21:49, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. If we have lists of supermarkets and other businesses, then I don't see the harm in having a list for coffee companies. Mike H 22:36, Dec 4, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: I've added some more coffee companies to the list, but I still think it's not going to grow up into a very useful list. Zenyu 19:11, Dec 5, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, someone might find it useful as it grows. Watch for ad creep, though. Wyss 20:28, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, for same reasons as Wyss gives. --Idont Havaname 23:36, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Mark Richards 01:45, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Potential to be useful for research later on the industry. -- Jmabel | Talk 08:39, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, quite interesting. [[User:GRider|GRider\talk]] 17:55, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
