This looks like blatant advertising to me - and I can't see an obvious way to salvage it. However, I'm sparing it from {{db-spam}} and bringing it over for discussion, as it looks like there is potentially a notable topic buried here - possibly more so for the architecture of the building than for the company itself. I'm not sure how anything longer than a one-paragraph stub could be extracted from the current article, though, and can't see an obvious way to expand on it. – iridescent 19:02, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - A quick search through Google news brings up many articles about the work this company has done and profiles on the company itself. The article needs a clean-up but the company is definitely notable. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 20:29, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Highly promotional vanity article. Needs serious editing, starting with removing all the equipment lists. That's just advertising. Hairhorn (talk) 06:51, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- We have a problem i think, this AfD is flawed because all three articles nominated for deletion: Metropolis Group, Metropolis Studios & Metropolis Mastering are linked together. Shouldn't they have been each nominated separately?? If so, then this AfD is not valid. If this issue is not going to be considered then KEEP because Metropolis is a genuine, legitimate and reputable studio. That said, I believe that the user named AndreBski is this company's meat puppet. I came to this conclusion when I caught him posting spam to the Audio_mastering article with a video made by Metropolis mastering engineers. He is also the author of all three articles about Metropolis. Clearly, this user didn't come to contribute but to promote and he does appear to be an employee of this company. So, I would merge all three into one and delete the other two. Jrod2 (talk) 12:16, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
