The sources show it existed, but not significant coverage to pass WP:GNG or WP:ORG. Almost all the sources in the article are either just mentions of their name, or about the energy crisis in general. Joseph 2302 ( talk) 14:33, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

- My source evaluation:
- [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]- all just say they folded and how many customers, not significant coverage about them
- [6], [7]- about the UK energy crisis in general, PFP not even mentioned in the articles
- [8], [9]- local sites, both same website, so is at most 1 decent source
- [10], [11]- shows they exist, but these websites cover facts for all energy companies, so doesn't show any notability
- [12] - primary source about British Gas takeover
- In summary, there aren't any good sources that clearly demonstrate it passes WP:GNG. Joseph 2302 ( talk) 14:37, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- Delete: Significant coverage to pass WP:GNG or WP:ORG are not available & It does not meets WP:NCORP guidelines. Mommmyy ( talk) 17:46, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- Delete: The sudden collapses of this and other energy firms may eventually merit coverage, for example as a new topic under Office_of_Gas_and_Electricity_Markets#Development_of_competition_in_the_UK_market, but the phenomenon does not confer individual notability on each firm concerned. I am not seeing evidence that the firm attained notability in its own right. AllyD ( talk) 11:09, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
- Delete: although there are some news coverage, none are in-depth and mostly mention the failure of the firm. Webmaster862 ( talk) 01:12, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
