Nominated for deletion because the article seems more promotional than anything with majority of links back to the website of INTA Gems and Diamonds. Of the references, 5 of the 7 are links back to their website. One is to a group Blog called Luxist. The other is a bi-weekly web news site that briefly mentions the company in passing as one of the sponsors of Miss California. Only notability seems to be claimed for being the official jewelry sponsor of Miss California. Warfieldian (talk) 23:43, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete - Article's subject does not appear to meet WP:GNG. --RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 01:53, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Luxist is an AOL publication covering luxury goods and lifestyles. I'd accept it as coverage in a reliable source. However, it's not much coverage, and without other supporting coverage, it doesn't meet notability. -- Whpq (talk) 14:25, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - A major Los Angeles jewelery company with 2 reliable, third-party sources (Luxist and West Hollywood News). I'd also like to point out that the page has been in good standing for 6 months. Jpjaegerc5 (talk) 20:57, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
