The result was merge to NTT Communications. NTT Europe Online wasn't officially included in this nomination, so I won't include it, or the template, in the close, but if somebody wants to be WP:BOLD, let not this close stand in their way. -- RoySmith (talk) 23:04, 23 October 2018 (UTC)

Wholly owned subsidiary. Not notable in its own right. Rathfelder (talk) 12:53, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

- Comment: I have a conflict of interests so I am not going to !vote. I'll just suggest that if this is deleted then the optimal merge and/or redirect target would be NTT Communications. I'd also suggest to have a look at navigation template Template:NTT as that has a lot of red links on it. Obviously, red links don't help anybody to navigate anything and, if we do feel that the subsidiary companies are not notable, then having red links is merely setting a trap for some poor person to unwittingly click on and waste their time editing fruitlessly. Whatever happens here, the same result should probably be applied to NTT Europe Online as that is a one line stub about a company (formerly Verio Europe) that was merged onto NTT Europe. Finally, I'll just note that there are also French and German articles for NTT Europe. These are a bit more substantial (which might be helpful) but also clearly out of date as they still list the previous MD. --DanielRigal (talk) 14:06, 29 September 2018 (UTC)
- Note: I've added a second "Find sources" line which omits the "Ltd" from the name. This is not intended to push people in any particular direction. It is just that most writers tend to omit "Ltd" when writing about companies and hence this gives a more complete view. --DanielRigal (talk) 15:01, 29 September 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect this and the aforementioned stub (NTT Europe online) to NTT Communications, the parent is notable these are offshoots. The template is OK it just needs copyediting and changing. Szzuk (talk) 18:32, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

- Merge (what little there is) and Delete. Fails the criteria for establishing notability, fails GNG and WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 16:38, 20 October 2018 (UTC)
