Keep this may actually be notable. It does pass V--the sources are OK for the purpose. And it does not read as spam. DGG (talk) 19:04, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I looked before setting this up for AfD. Basically nothing beyond what's on the page -- a single gnews hit, 8 google hits. I marked it as a classic "public relations" type piece, hence the spam. I agree, it's not obvious spam, or a candidate for G12. RayAYang (talk) 23:01, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note — Creator has removed a {{coi}} tag from the article among others. This can be better explained at WP:COIN. MuZemike (talk) 23:12, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
'"Note"' - I am the creator. I removed all the tags because I thought I had solved the issue by editing the language to make the tone neutral. I had initially just grabbed the language from blogs and articles written about them, but after it was tagged went back with a more discerning eye- sorry about all the confusion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lpie7 (talk • contribs) 18:42, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Passes WP:V but misses the mark on WP:N which is more fundamental.Themfromspace (talk) 01:27, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep WP:GNGIf a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be a suitable article topic." The marketing press is of the subject, but the university press is independent of the subject —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.186.108.48 (talk • contribs) 00:53, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
