- Delete. Prior versions of the article show that this business was a lead refinery. Google News is unhelpful because of the unoriginality of the name; there are msny "P K Industries" that aren't this. If this is notable, reliable sources for this may not be in English. Still, no prior version of the article establishes that this business had the kind of significant effects on history, technology, or culture of the kind needed to justify a standalone article. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 19:52, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Conditional Delete. I went online and found a variety of references for 'P. K. Industries.' Many of the locations are related, but none of the references really provide much info. Some of the references may be for businesses totally independent from each other. If this article is to be kept, we need to throroughly examine the references and find information that can link some of these locations together and better explain what this company does. I think the article actually is about a small company in Bangladesh, rather than about the worldwide P. K. network. If so, this small company should not have an article, unless someone comes up with a compelling reason to keep it. Bill Pollard (talk) 14:08, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- comment mea culpa - i did not realize that removal of content that would qualify an article for speedy deletion -blatant advertisement would then bar the article from deletion under "speedy deletion - no claim of significance" because it previously did proclaim its importance! -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 03:26, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- delete - the original posting was about some "super" battery maker in Banglash. the only "PK Industry" + "battery" hit was to a company in Orange USA -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 03:33, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete No indication of notability. It's impossible even to tell which company this is supposed to be about; Google finds numerous companies named P. K. Industries, even when qualified by "Bangladesh".[1] --MelanieN (talk) 23:54, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
