[edit] Searchguy
A crap article but the subject may be notable so, much as I was tempted to nuke it on the basis of the secont para, I brought it here instead. Guy (Help!) 20:44, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Non notable company. See WP:CORP. Internet companies are like other companies, we look for non trivial published sources, not inclusion on lists.Obina 20:56, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. WP:CORP requires that 'The company or corporation has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the company or corporation itself.' A Google search for the founder, Larry Rachitsky gets 991 hits. However in the first 3 pages of results there are no reliable sources included. Googling for 'Searchguy' gets more hits but I did not see any reliable sources. Searchguy has an Alexa rank of about 258,000 over the last 3 months, not too impressive.

- Strong Delete, not notable, pretty obviously spam. Xtifr tälk 22:42, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete Reads like an advert. Badly written, no sources. scope_creep 23:05, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
