[edit] Carrot Communications
Delete as per WP:ORG. Moreover, it looks like an advertisement of a non-notable organization. -- Niaz(Talk • Contribs) 13:24, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete as insufficiently notable per WP:CORP. — Satori Son 13:39, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- Have edited the page as compromise. In the Wikipedia guidelines, it clearly states that small organisations can be 'of note'; this one is headed by the industry association chairman in the UK and I would argue is of note for this reason Ella22 (talk) 16:11, 7 February 2008 (UTC). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ella22 (talk • contribs) 16:04, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

- Unfortunately, notability is not inherited, so even if Richard Houghton was sufficiently notable on his own, it wouldn't pass through to this company. Can you provide any cites to show that Carrot Communications "has been the subject of coverage in secondary sources ... Such sources must be reliable, and independent of the subject"? If so, please post them here or in the article so that we may evaluate them. Thanks. — Satori Son 17:11, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete: a PR agency whose clients are IT or technology-based companies. Sorry, but if your business is public relations, and relates to tech businesses, my suspicion then becomes that you are aware of the usefulness of using Wikipedia for promotional purposes and to increase search engine visibility. So articles about businesses of this nature need to show notability from the start. A single industry award is not good enough. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:31, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
