Written in a blatantly promotional style. That could be fixed, but I can't find any WP:RS. With the exception of one (routine coverage of a real-estate transaction), all of the references in the article are to the company's own website, and I can't find anything better. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:22, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- Well, this is weird. If you go back to the very first version of this article, there's actually some semi-decent references. They're all just routine coverage of a financial nature (bankruptcy filing, etc), so I still don't think we've got WP:CORPDEPTH covered. They're also not flattering to the company. I haven't done an extensive search of the history, but this sure looks like a case of a deliberate rewrite to give the company a promotional boost. Be that as it may, I don't see how this meets WP:N. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:30, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- Just to clarify, if somebody could identify a version in the history which is non-promotional and has good sourcing, I would have no objection to reverting back to that. But, I haven't been able to find one that meets both criteria. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:52, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

- Kommentar this passes the "I've heard of it" test, but I can say little else in its favor. I'll do a full check for sources before !voting, but don't see any reason to keep it right now; RoySmith is spot on regarding the two versions in the article history. power~enwiki (π, ν) 00:07, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
- There's an WP:OTHERSTUFF argument to keep it; it compares well to a lot of the chains on List of Health club chains and there is WP:MILL coverage of some individual locations. power~enwiki (π, ν) 01:06, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
- Strong keep - obviously meets notability guideline. However, about three years ago a spam account replaced its content and removed all the reliable sources.[1] If the current article doesn't meet sourcing guidelines, it ought to be reverted to the viable version. - Wikidemon (talk) 04:17, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
- Nomination withdrawn. Thanks to Wikidemon for finding a decent version. I've reverted the article back to that version, which we should keep. -- RoySmith (talk) 13:14, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
