== VfD discussion ==
''from VfD:''

Spam, no useful content.  I almost speedy deleted it -- [[User:Chuq|Chuq]] 07:52, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
:Comment:  Chuq, you ''did'' tag it for speedy.  :-)  Since you decided to list it here instead, I changed the speedy tag to a Vfd tag. [[User:SWAdair|SWAdair]] | [[User talk:SWAdair|Talk ]] 08:00, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
::I realised that and came back later, I think I got to it 20 seconds after you changed it :) [[User:Chuq|Chuq]] 22:33, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
*'''Keep'''.  Google gives 10,700 hits in English, 78,100 in all languages.  With that many people talking about it, it looks notable enough to me.  [[User:SWAdair|SWAdair]] | [[User talk:SWAdair|Talk ]] 08:14, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
*'''Keep''' but improve the article. It should be listed in cleanup/stubs needing attention pages, not here. Multinational enterprise with revenue around 1.3B USD and nearly 18000 employees in four continents is certainly a valid topic. [[User:Jni|jni]] 08:20, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
*Delete if it stays a substub by the end of voting.  Look, the topic might be worthwhile, but we do ourselves a vast disservice, and our readers an insult, by carrying placeholders like this.  We lose users every time we yield something like this to a search.  Wikipedia isn't just about retaining contributors: we are supposed to be making a reference work.

== Please add the acquisition of Aricent ==

<!-- PLEASE READ: Please provide your requested edit after the {{edit COI}} below in a roughly "replace X with Y" format. Explain the rationale behind the edit and provide reliable sources to support the proposed changes. At the end of the request, add four tildes "~~~~" and click "Save Page" -->

{{edit COI|D|ADV}}
P.S. I talked to [[User:AntiCompositeNumber]] on IRC about this change. [[User:AntiCompositeNumber]] seems to approve of the change.

Please add the following right after 'Dominique Cerutti' in the introduction. 

On November 30, 2017, Altran signed an agreement to acquire the global design and engineering services firm [[Aricent]]. The deal is expected to close in the first quarter of 2018. The combined entity will have 44,000 employees operating across 30 countries and have close to €3 billion ($3.56 billion) in revenues.<ref name="Altran acquires Aricent">[https://tech.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/corporate/aricent-acquired-by-altran-group-in-a-2bn-all-cash-deal/61861118 Altran acquires Aricent], India Times, Retrieved 2017-12-19</ref>

{{Declined}} The requested claim statements represent forward-thinking hypotheses regarding future expectations and do not represent matters for an encylopedia, per: [[WP:FUTURE]]. If [[User:AntiCompositeNumber|AntiCompositeNumber]] is willing to make this change to an article which is — by all appearances — already [[wiktionary:bloated|bloated]], they are welcome to it.<br>

:I believe the wording I used was that the request didn’t obviously violate any policies or guidelines when they asked in [[WP:IRCHELP]]. I won’t be adding the sentence nor doing the complete rewrite this article probably needs ([[WP:OTHERPARENT]] anyone?), so this article will probably stay as it is. --[[User:AntiCompositeNumber|AntiCompositeNumber]] ([[User talk:AntiCompositeNumber|Ring me]]) 16:31, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
:Amazingly, I wasn't notified about this through email! Anyhow, thanks {{Ping|AntiCompositeNumber}} and {{Ping|Spintendo}} for looking into this proposed addition. I had a look at [[WP:FUTURE]]. The agreement was signed, no crystal balls are needed. The acquisition does not announce a product not is it a rumor. Anything I could do to enhance the text?
