[edit] Elite Soirée

Advert for nn company. The company's stated website doesn't even work. See associated AFD nominations for The Bridal Gala™ and Taylor Lea Thomas Kcordina 09:38, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, advertisement for non-notable company. Sandstein 13:10, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, blatant advertisement. Feezo (Talk) 14:09, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Keep, it seriously needs to be reworded to not be an advertisement, info from Taylor Lea Thomas should be merged into it instead of on a non-notable's bio page. The company has been featured prominently on a cable network, is award winning in its field, and has dealt with multiple celebrities, though it doesn't meet the independent source requirements of WP:Corp. -Dawson 18:57, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Another note, it should probably be linked off of some of the people who have hired the company for events so its not floating all alone out in wiki world? -Dawson 18:58, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

• Weak Delete - if website is not notable enough to be online and working, then not notable enough for Wikipedia to have an article about it imo. Wickethewok 22:54, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Company founder is 24 so there's probably a lot less to this business than the article suggests. Golfcam 23:31, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above. --Khoikhoi 03:57, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

• Note Article creator removed the {{afd}} tag from the article. You might want to keep an eye out so that he doesn't do this in the future (I've already dropped a note on his talk page telling him that he isn't supposed to do that; hopefully it'll prevent him from doing it again).

• Keep, Dear Readers: Thank you for your interest in this article. We have read every single comment and we're doing all we can to make this article better. The feedback is very, very valuable and we most certainly appreciate it. The comments left by all of you can only aid in making this article much better. This article on Elite Soiree is mainly to provide readers with the basic info on the company. Elite Soiree's success is attributed to it's founder due to her tenacity and dedication to her work, even at a young age, which has garnered her awards, TV opportunities, books and some of the most noted celebrities today. The story of Taylor Lea Thomas is commendable which is why it is written here. Elite Soiree was started without any partners or investors yet she has managed to accomplish the aforementioned on her own. For a woman in business at her age, her accomplishments are therefore notable, as others would agree. It is in no way an advertisement and nothing more than a mere blurb about the company. Rest assured, however, that we will make this article better and more informative. We therefore kindly request help in doing so since we're inexperienced here on Wikipedia. In time and with your help, we aspire to make this article one that readers enjoy reading. Most importantly, it is not intended as a sales tool and should be understood as such. Again, thank you for the constructive criticism and we most certainly look forward to working with you to make it better in lieu of simply deleting it. Also, we apologize for deleting the previous tag since we were unaware of this discussion page. Thank you for your participation in this matter.

• Keep Article is being cleaned up. Taylor Lea Thomas has already undergone significant changes and will continue to improve with time. Peter Sanders 14:06, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
  • User's second keep recommendation in this discussion. --Kinu ^t/_c 20:50, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, non-notable per WP:CORP, based on the lack of information in the article and from what I can find on it. The website not working is the icing on the cake. --Kinu ^t/_c 20:50, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, fails WP:CORP. Walter Siegmund (talk) 05:00, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
