- Delete In effect completely unreferenced - the second ref refers to one minor fact, and the first one doesn't have anything relevant to the article. It has no content that is not just repeated from the company's own website. There's no point in a redirect to ship classification society since that article is about what the class societies do, and the only mention of Dromon is in a non-exhaustive list - it can stay there as an entry (in black).

- On behalf of the Administration of Dromon Bureau of Shipping,
- DBS should be listed on Wikipedia because it is a notable international classification society and certification organization within the maritime industry. It plays a vital role in ensuring the safety and quality of ships and maritime operations, which is of significant importance globally.
- DBS operates on a global scale, providing services to a wide range of maritime stakeholders, including shipowners, shipbuilders, and regulatory bodies. Its activities impact the safety, environmental sustainability, and regulatory compliance of maritime operations worldwide.
- There are verifiable and reliable sources available that document DBS's history, operations, and contributions to the maritime sector. These sources, including industry publications, official reports, and academic studies, provide a solid foundation for creating a well-referenced Wikipedia article.
- DBS's involvement in maritime classification and certification involves adherence to international standards and regulations. Documenting its role on Wikipedia can help educate readers about the importance of classification societies in maintaining safety standards within the shipping industry.
- Listing DBS on Wikipedia can serve an educational purpose by providing a comprehensive and impartial overview of its activities, responsibilities, and the broader context of maritime classification. This information can benefit students, researchers, and the general public seeking knowledge about the maritime sector.
- Classification societies like DBS play a critical role in ensuring the safety and compliance of vessels. Articles about DBS can shed light on their contributions to maritime safety, which is an essential aspect of the industry.
- In summary, Dromon Bureau of Shipping merits inclusion in Wikipedia due to its notability, global impact, the availability of verifiable information, its role in maritime regulations, and its potential educational value to readers interested in the maritime industry.
- Awaiting your feedback.

- I hear what you’re saying but we have internal requirements that require us to delete the article as presently written. Perhaps you can help - please read WP:NORG and WP:RS. If you have references that satisfy those requirements, that would be great. Otherwise our rules require us to delete this article as unverifiable.
