[edit] Eversites

NN, also looks like original research. Google hits for "eversites": 78. The article contains a quote from the BBB which I cannot locate on bbb.org. In fact, the phrase "eversites claims" (which is taken directly from the quotation) does not seem to appear on any web pages, save for this article. A URL search for eversites.com at the BBB site does yield some useful information - that there are "7 pending complaint [sic]" against eversites, and 1 resolved complaint with regard to sales practices, but it doesn't list the outcome. It looks to me like someone got scammed and decided to make a wikipedia article about it. Either way, 78 Google hits is ridiculous. Delete. Moe Aboulkheir 00:26, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. The quote is from http://www.ky-in.bbb.org/alerts/20060412.pdf, which I've added to the article. (It was the first Google hit after the company's own website.) —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-07-05 00:58Z
  • Hmm, I was wrong about not being able to find "eversites claims" - google hides the result because the (long) quote in the WP article appears in both. I only see it if I click the "show omitted results" link, which includes matches that share long sequences of text with higher-ranked pages. Though the BBB PDF doesn't show up in any of the results for a vanilla "eversites" query, it appears on the first page, in the 8th position, if i include omitted results. Of course, my vote still stands. Moe Aboulkheir 22:05, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
    • I guess I got carried away with correcting the implication that the BBB quote was made-up. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-07-06 08:02Z

  • It's more an anti-advertisement than an advertisement. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-07-05 01:23Z
• Delete Whatever it is, it's highly non-notable, as the nom pointed out in detail. -- Kicking222 01:52, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Sucks for whoever got burned by them, but doesn't make it notable. WP:CORP? HumbleGod 04:21, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
