I couldn't establish that this quite meets WP:ORG or WP:GNG. Tagged for notability by Bradv 7 years ago; hopefully it can now be resolved. Boleyn (talk) 07:15, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – The company ~~is now~~ was later known as Computerlinks UK (source: [1]). See source search links below. NORTH AMERICA¹⁰⁰⁰ 08:38, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: It seems to me that the notability of the first existence of Unipalm relates to Pipex and has sufficiently coverage in that article. As to its second existence, Highbeam turns up various routine distribution announcements, but I can see nothing indicating notability in that period up to its merger into Computerlinks, whose own website now just redirects to Arrow Electronics following an acquisition [2].

Significant coverage

Additional information

Also, at one time, Unipalm Pipex was the largest internet service provider in Europe, as per Network World May 27, 1996.
PC Mag Jul 1994 – Article about Unipalm's Mail-It email software

Comment: All of that relates to Pipex though, whose notability is in no dispute and which has its own article; I am not seeing that it demonstrates separate notability of Unipalm, as per WP:NOTINHERITED? AllyD (talk) 10:07, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – Pipex was a subsidiary of Unipalm: see this link. As such, it was a part of Unipalm. Also, per the article, the company later changed its trading name to Unipalm-Pipex in July 1995. Also, please re-review the links I have provided; they are not all about the Pipex subsidiary. NORTH AMERICA¹⁰⁰⁰ 10:13, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

keep A crucial company for UK internet history, pre-web. It might be appropriate t omer with Pipex, but that's a question of financial history more subtle than I'm familiar with. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:05, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
