About five years ago, someone translated the first two sentences of a Danish language article about this Danish company, and then abandoned it. Apparently, this corporation has just over three hundred employees and it sells eggs.Well, I nominated it for A7 today, and the reviewing sysop decided to add one (1) reference and one (1) sentence about a historic salmonella scare, and then directed me to AfD.The
Danish language version of this article may be acceptable and could be translated, but nobody has done that and
Wikipedia:Pages needing translation is so catastrophically backlogged with far more important work that I think there's little real prospect of anyone doing so for quite a few years. Until that happens, please will the community authorise its deletion. —

If one reads an article that mentions "DAVA Foods" og "Hedegaard Foods", but does not explain what the firm do, they can look it op here and see that they are Danish and produce eggs. Granted, that is not much, but it is the most important information there is to say. You have not questioned the notability of the subject. ―

On the other hand, if we deleted it here, then instead of finding this microstub, they'd find the very comprehensive Danish Wikipedia article, although they might need to use google translate to read it. You're right to say that this isn't about notability; it's about a two-sentence microstub that someone generated with twenty seconds' work, five years ago, and then abandoned. I think it's an utterly disproportionate amount of effort to fix it and much simpler to delete, but if you'd rather fix it, feel free.—

Keep. I used the Danish Wikipedia article to expand it, adding a couple of references I found myself for things where their reference was irretrievable or where they didn't have one. The company does dominate the Nordic egg market (I am out of time but need to hunt down more on its size and its market share in, for example, the Faroes), and has attracted press coverage that is not all regurgitated press releases and is not all about the salmonella outbreak (I kept the one ref we had on that but didn't have time to add any of the others da.wikipedia has). I believe notability is now established.
