[edit] Oilily
POV marketing swill. would be good to have an article on Oilily, but this isn't it. should be thwacked until a real article is attempted. SaltyPig 11:49, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep with information about the actual store rather than a jumble of obscure and useless data from the store's website Drdisque 07:38, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
- okay, who's going to do that? i saw about 1 sentence that wasn't marketing dreck. it's not like anything's lost by deleting the page. sometimes i think these votes for deletion are viewed as though it's the last chance for the entire future of an article. the best future for this article might be to zap it so that somebody actually starts it right one day. not jamming on you personally, but i wonder what the value is in leaving up some of these hack pages. the vote for deletion is voting to delete this article, not any article that might be made about the subject later. if you can fill me in, please do. thanks. this general "keep everything possible" flavor i've noticed lately confuses me. it seems to presume that creating a page is difficult, as though we're fortunate that somebody happened by one day and left us these pieces of litter. strange (IMO).

- Copyvio tagged n' reported. BTW POV is not a valid reason to delete Ryan Norton T | @ | C 15:33, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
- re POV, i'm aware of that claim and disagree. SaltyPig 22:15, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
- Its only valid if it is not possible to make the article NPOV for some reason (like List of ethnic stereotypes). In this case its just a company, so it would be fairly easy to rework it from a NPOV Ryan Norton T | @ | C 22:18, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
- again, i'm aware of that claim, and i disagree. if you'd like to argue it, point me to the correct spot to let fly. i'm shocked by this VfD procedure. horrible! i gather we're not supposed to ramble too much here though. feel free to use my talk page if interested.
