This article looks like an attempt at public relations because it was created by a single purpose account, and remains very thinly sourced. Checking the sources that are online, I do not see coverage by multiple independent sources as required by our corporation/organization notability guideline. Passing mentions and minor blubs are not sufficient to write more than a very short stub. Wikipedia is not a collection of indescriminate information.

Keep - The standard WP:CORP requires "significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources". The cited on-line ref Small Scale, Big Impact on Biodiesel magazine alone seems to provide this as it is a detailed profile on this company and not just "Trivial or incidental coverage". - Ahunt (talk) 16:27, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. One magazine article does not sufficiently establish notability, and I could find nothing else. Drmies (talk) 16:34, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I came here after seeing the ANI discussion at WP:ANI#Big White Tiger LLC Legal Settlement. Though we would hesitate to delete an article merely because of an off-wiki legal dispute, the fact that the company seems not to be continuing in business removes most of the reason for having an article on them. They did not (so far as I can tell) make such a large impact that it's worth keeping an article on them as a former company. EdJohnston (talk) 17:01, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. It does seem to be slightly advertising, but I believe that could easily be fixed ("They also provide a wide range of fuel additive products that increase gas mileage, help keep engines clean, and/or improve diesel engine efficiency. Additionally, Big White Tiger sells biodiesel supplies and small-scale production equipment"). And it also has reliable secondary sources. Endofskull (talk) 17:14, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: The company seems notable enough. Could be expanded and more sources added, but overall it should be kept.--NavyBlue84 17:21, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
