[edit] Kofax

This is spam. Language is written to present products as superior, to incite people to buy, and includes a link to the homepage of this company. I recommend deletion of the page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ulysseshadd (talk • contribs). User's only contribution

• A poorly written article doesn't constitute deletion. It has to meet several conditions for inclusion, namely WP:CORP and WP:V. For the moment, I am neutral --Wafulz 17:59, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
• It's non-neutral because 209.36.164.6 (talk • contribs) copied the copyrighted advertising blurb from the company's own web site ("Copyright © 1992-2006 Kofax Image Products. All rights reserved.") into the article and removed the neutrality from the existing text. I've reverted to the most recent non-infringing version. Uncle G 18:22, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
• You're right, it does have to meet WP:CORP, except it doesnt - delete it. Amists 18:39, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep. I did a quick google search, which returned 1.63 million results. All of these on the first few pages pertain to this particular company. After this, I ran a google news search, which returned 9 results, but google news only keeps news from the last few months. As a result of these two searches, I'd say this company is notable.

• Obvious keep, one of the great pitchers in baseball history oh, er, never mind. Keep per Srose. NawlinWiki 19:19, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
• I found the existence of the page useful. I was looking for neutral info on the company products/history. Would have been nicer if it had been a trifle meatier....
