[edit] Novus Consulting
If you want to rewrite this artilce so as to make it more likely to survive the WP:AFD debate, i suggest that you:
- Remove the "Mission Statement and Guiding Principles"
- Remove the "Taglines & Slogans"
- Remove anything else that sounds like a company advertisemet or factsheet
- Explain why this company is more significant than a random information solutions company. There are many such firms, and simply being one of those, even if a high-quality one, is not IMO a reason for an article on wikipedia. Does this firm dominate its market? Does it doe somethign unusual that other firms do not do, or is it in soem way an industry leader? Has it had an impact on teh community, in ways that most firms do not? If so, say so, and provide verifable sources for those statements.
- Change the list of clients for a bare lsit to one that indicates the significane of what th firm does for thos clients. A shorter lsit of selcted clients with such commetns would IMO be better than a longer list that was just a lit of names.
I hope this advice is helpful. it is, of course, only my personal opnion, and not wikipedia policy. But I think it reflects the veiws of many wikipedia editors. DES (talk) 23:19, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

- Removing the taglines is good, but adding info on why this buisness is notable or significant is vital. "Wherefore is this business more important than most other buisnesses" so to speak. I have made a pair of format edits, but they are minor. More news stories, and/or more commetns on why they make this buisness important, will help a lot, IMO. Then when you have made some changs go to the AFD page and add a commetn sayign so, and ask people to look at the revised version. Don't expect them to check without being asked. Good luck DES (talk) 23:37, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
