Delete fails WP:NCORP. SK2242 (talk) 18:08, 6 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Type 62 (with the history preserved under the redirect) per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion. Harbin First Machinery Building Group Ltd (also known as 674 Factory) is the manufacturer of Type 62, a Chinese light tank.
According to this article in GlobalSecurity.org, "As a large state-owned enterprise, Harbin First Machinery Group Co., Ltd. of China North Equipment Co., Ltd. had the social responsibility to help the country provide relevant capabilities." It is possible that the company is notable given it is "a large state-owned enterprise", but I have been unable to find significant coverage in reliable sources about it to establish notability per Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline. The Wikipedia article does not include the company's Chinese name (and my searches using the English name did not reveal its Chinese name), which would be a better search term for Chinese sources for this Chinese company.

- Cunard, the Chinese name according to the Chinese article for Type 62 is either "哈尔滨674厂" or "哈尔滨674厂装甲兵科学技术研究院" if those can help you find anything. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 12:24, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  - Thank you, Emir of Wikipedia. I did searches for "哈尔滨674厂" and "哈尔滨674厂装甲兵科学技术研究院" and could not find significant coverage in reliable sources about the company. Cunard (talk) 06:27, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Type 62, It's amazing how long this stub has lasted and I don't think I've seen an article that's been so rarely edited before. Besides the point, Redirects are cheap. JayJay^{What did I do?} 05:22, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- JayJay, I found it on Wikipedia:Database reports/Forgotten articles if you are interested in articles that have not been edited in a long time, many of which have been rarely edited either. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 12:25, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
