[edit] Alpha Point Security
This page was blanked by an IP who said in the edit summary, "Alpha Point Security does not exist, other than its (poorly made) website, it has NO list of past clients, and no other sources mention its existence" and on the talk page, "This page should be deleted, Alpha Point Security is clearly a hoax and the record needs to be cleared." There is indeed no coverage, significant or trivial, in reliable sources hence it fails WP:RS, WP:V and WP:N. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 03:24, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

- Delete. Seems like a possible hoax to me. I mean, most PMCs don't advertise this way, and the domain seems to be up for sale. Celarnor Talk to me 07:05, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
- On second thought, maybe not a hoax; a few trustworthy-seeming websites give them mention, but it's still iffy. In any case, I haven't been able to find anything asserting notability. Celarnor Talk to me 07:07, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. Besides the company's own web site, I couldn't find anything online which points to this being a real organization which conducts mercenary operations. The company's own web site coyly avoids ever mentioning any clients or spokespeople, making it impossible to fact-check anything. Zetawoof(ζ) 08:38, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
