  • Keep and Cleanup It appears to be a legitimate company. The links pan out and it gets over 50,000 google hits. It's very possible I'm missing something, though. Why was this nominated? -Soltak 18:31, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and Get a Better Writer I wrote the article, and used to work at the company. I've read Wikipedia's policies and done my best to conform to them. The company is a rather unique and amazing success story. It has been written up numerous times in the press, and received many awards. The purpose of the article is not to promote the business (they do well enough themselves), but to tell a unique and interesting story of how a business disaster can be overcome through perseverence, commitment, and loyal friends.

  • Keep, and it would seem to me that the article could both note an intriguing business story and describe the market that the company serves. Needs some fleshing out, sure, but really not a candidate for deletion. Jason 01:15, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
