[edit] Metrologic Instruments
Doesn't appear to meet WP:CORP. Blatant spam/advertising (creator's username is "Metrologic"). Prod removed by author without comment. -- Merope Talk to me/Review me 15:48, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
- This entry is not spam or advertising. It is purely informational and therefore should not be deleted.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Metrologic (talk • contribs).
- Keep - Company passes every single criterion of WP:CORP, not really even worth arguing details. My Alt Account 15:59, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
- Furthermore, page doesn't rank very high on my ad/spam meter (hey, where are all the links? where do I buy? What's your product pricing?) and the information is pretty good. Would be nice for someone to go through and add cites; anything that derives from SEC filings would be acceptable even though those are written by the company.

- Followup - I put a note on User:Metrologic's user page letting him know what good work he's doing ('cause it's true) and suggesting he pull in references (sort of cheeky, we can do it as easily as he can). I also put a {{references}} tag on the article. I think we can close the AfD now, except for the whole consensus thing. Do I hear a consensus? My Alt Account 16:34, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
- I withdraw the nomination. The earlier version of the article (which was prodded) was much more spammy than this current version. I apologize for not noticing the change of the article in conjunction with the removal of the {{prod}} tag. -- Merope 17:06, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
- As a fast-on-the-trigger deletionist, I think the whole thing is understandable, and anyway, no harm no foul. My Alt Account 17:09, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
