[edit] Applian Technologies Inc.

Blatant advertising, "a great way to download music", for example. Almost every other word is an external link to an Applian product site, no internal links whatsoever. Page is author's only contribution, aside from same content on user page. Delete. AbsoluteFlatness 04:06, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

  • Weak keep if cleaned up. Lots of Google hits for Applian and "Radio Replay". Traffic Rank for applian.com: 36,181, not bad for a website selling software. —Quarl (talk) 2006-01-24 04:23Z
  • Delete - non-notable company. Give me one that has changed the world. Ruby 04:23, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Wikipedia is not self promotion/advertising, as this clearly is. We don't owe them a good article because they seem to have spammed WP. --W.marsh 04:29, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
